    This Act may be cited as the ``Duty First Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    The congress finds the following:
            (1) The 1st Infantry Division was constituted on May 24, 
        1917, and is the first and oldest permanently established 
        combat division of the United States Army. 2017 is the 
        centennial of the Division.
            (2) The 1st Infantry Division has been in continuous 
        service since its organization.
            (3) The 1st Infantry Division has fought with distinction 
        in every major conflict since 1917 except the Korean War, when 
        it was on occupation duty in Germany.
            (4) In World War I, the then-First Division was the first 
        United States division to arrive in France. It fired the first 
        American shots of the war, suffered the first casualties and 
        secured the first American victory at the Battle of Cantigny in 
        May, 1918. This was also the first modern, combined arms battle 
        in American history. It fought with distinction in all 
        subsequent campaigns and, after occupation duty in Germany, was 
        the last combat division to return home in 1919.
            (5) Five division soldiers received the Medal of Honor in 
        World War I.
            (6) In World War II, the 1 ID was the first to deploy to 
        Europe. It fought in North Africa and Sicily in 1942 and 1943. 
        General George S. Patton, Jr., commander of the United States 
        7th Army in the Mediterranean, stated that he would not invade 
        Sicily without the 1 ID as the assault division.
            (7) The 1 ID was the lead assault division on Omaha beach 
        in Normandy on D-Day, June 6, 1944. Against frightful odds and 
        despite multiple challenges, it secured a beach head on a day 
        when failure could have altered the outcome of the war.
            (8) The 1 ID played pivotal roles in the liberation of 
        France and Belgium; the Battle of the Bulge; the crossing of 
        the Rhine River; and the invasion and defeat of Nazi Germany. 
        After the war, the Division supported and secured the 
        International War Crimes Tribunal at Nuremburg, Germany, 
        guarding infamous Nazi officials during the courtroom 
        proceedings.
            (9) Seventeen division soldiers received the Medal of Honor 
        in World War II.
            (10) The 1 ID was the only United States combat division in 
        Europe from 1946 to 1951. It returned to the United States and 
        Fort Riley, KS, in 1955.
            (11) The 1 ID was one of the first 2 combat divisions 
        deployed to Vietnam in 1965. There it defended the vital 
        Highway 13 corridor against enemy infiltration from Cambodia to 
        the capital at Saigon. It fought gallantly in Operation 
        Junction City, the largest operation of the war, in 1967; and 
        in all 3 waves of the Tet Offensive in 1968.
            (12) Twelve division soldiers received the Medal of Honor 
        in Vietnam.
            (13) The 1 ID deterred Soviet aggression against NATO 
        Europe from 1970 to 1990 with a brigade in Germany and the rest 
        of the division deploying there annually from Fort Riley in 
        REFORGER exercises that demonstrated United States capability 
        and resolve until the Cold War ended.
            (14) The 1 ID deployed to Saudi Arabia in 1991 in 
        Operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm. It attacked to 
        breach the Iraqi defenses, raced across the desert with the 
        United States VIIth Corps, destroying the Iraqi Republican 
        Guard Tawakalna Division.
            (15) The 1 ID enforced international peace agreements in 
        Bosnia for 31 months between 1996 and 2000; for 4 months in 
        Macedonia (FYROM) in 1999; and for 22 months in Kosovo between 
        1999 and 2003.
            (16) The 1 ID deployed to Iraq in 2004 to 2005 in OIF II, 
        the initial occupation of Iraq, and helped achieve the first 
        free and fair elections in the history of Iraq. Its brigade 
        combat teams and other elements deployed multiple times to Iraq 
        and Afghanistan between 2003 and 2014.
            (17) The 1 ID provided the first ``regionally aligned 
        force'' (RAF) to the United States Africa Command and provided 
        military assistance to friendly governments across the 
        continent of Africa.
            (18) To combat the growing ISIS threat, 1 ID soldiers have 
        deployed to Iraq and Kuwait to assist the Iraqi Security Forces 
        and other friendly countries in that vital and unstable region.
            (19) The 1 ID will be deployed to Iraq, Afghanistan, and 
        Korea in 2016 and 2017, its centennial year.
            (20) Thirty-six soldiers have been decorated with the Medal 
        of Honor, and countless others have distinguished themselves in 
        combat.
            (21) The 1st Infantry Division has earned several unit 
        decorations, including 2 Meritorious Unit Commendations, 3 
        French Croix de Guerre, 1 Belgian Fourragere, Republic of 
        Vietnam Cross of Gallantry with Palm, 1 Republic of Vietnam 
        Civil Action Honor Medal, and was cited twice in the Order of 
        the Day of the Belgian Army.
            (22) The 1st Infantry Division has served the United States 
        with great valor and distinction since its organization, living 
        up to its motto, ``No mission too difficult, no sacrifice too 
        great--Duty First''.
