H. R. 330 
One Hundred Thirteenth Congress 
of the 
United States of America 
AT THE SECOND SESSION 
Begun and held at the City of Washington on Friday, 
the third day of January, two thousand and fourteen 
An Act 
To designate a Distinguished Flying Cross National Memorial at the March Field 
Air Museum in Riverside, California. 
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of 
the United States of America in Congress assembled, 
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE. 
This Act may be cited as the ‘‘Distinguished Flying Cross 
National Memorial Act’’. 
SEC. 2. DESIGNATION OF DISTINGUISHED FLYING CROSS NATIONAL 
MEMORIAL IN RIVERSIDE, CALIFORNIA. 
(a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following: 
(1) The most reliable statistics regarding the number of 
members of the Armed Forces who have been awarded the 
Distinguished Flying Cross indicate that 126,318 members of 
the Armed Forces received the medal during World War II, 
approximately 21,000 members received the medal during the 
Korean conflict, and 21,647 members received the medal during 
the Vietnam War. Since the end of the Vietnam War, more 
than 203 Armed Forces members have received the medal 
in times of conflict. 
(2) The National Personnel Records Center in St. Louis, 
Missouri, burned down in 1973, and thus many more recipients 
of the Distinguished Flying Cross may be undocumented. Cur-
rently, the Department of Defense continues to locate and iden-
tify members of the Armed Forces who have received the medal 
and are undocumented. 
(3) The United States currently lacks a national memorial 
dedicated to the bravery and sacrifice of those members of 
the Armed Forces who have distinguished themselves by heroic 
deeds performed in aerial flight. 
(4) An appropriate memorial to current and former mem-
bers of the Armed Forces is under construction at March Field 
Air Museum in Riverside, California. 
(5) This memorial will honor all those members of the 
Armed Forces who have distinguished themselves in aerial 
flight, whether documentation of such members who earned 
the Distinguished Flying Cross exists or not. 
(b) DESIGNATION.—The memorial to members of the Armed 
Forces who have been awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross, 
located at March Field Air Museum in Riverside, California, is 
hereby designated as the Distinguished Flying Cross National 
Memorial.
H. R. 330—2 
(c) EFFECT
OF DESIGNATION.—The national memorial des-
ignated by this section is not a unit of the National Park System, 
and the designation of the national memorial shall not be construed 
to require or permit Federal funds to be expended for any purpose 
related to the national memorial.

received on that basis.
‘‘(C)(i) If the sums available to make alloca-
tions to States under this paragraph are insufficient
to make the full allocations determined under sub-

‘‘(I) first, reduce the allocation of any
State whose number of children in the age
range described in paragraph (5) is less than
the number of those children in fiscal year 1995
by the same percentage by which that number
declined from 1995; and
‘‘(II) second, if necessary, ratably reduce
the allocations of all States, including those al-
locations reduced under subclause (I).
‘‘(ii) If additional funds become available to
make allocations under this paragraph, the alloca-
tions that were reduced under clause (i) shall be in-

SEC. 3. PREMIUM RATES. 
Section 1308 of the National Flood Insurance Act of 
1968 (42 U.S.C. 4015) is amended by adding at the end 
the following new subsection: 
‘‘(j) PREMIUM RATES FOR CERTAIN AGRICULTURAL 
STRUCTURES WITH VARIANCES.—Notwithstanding any 
other provision of this Act, the chargeable premium rate 
for coverage under this title for any structure provided a 
variance pursuant to section 1315(a)(3) shall be the rate 
that otherwise would apply to such structure if the struc-
ture had been repaired, expanded, or constructed before 
the establishment of the special flood hazard area.’’.

TITLE VI—SENSE OF THE CON-
GRESS REGARDING CRIMINAL

Justice should vigorously pursue criminal penalties to the 
maximum extent of the law, including prison sentences, 
for individuals who willfully violate Bank Secrecy Act anti- 
money laundering laws, thereby exposing the U.S. finan-
cial system to a wide array of money laundering, drug

TRIES AT HIGH RISK FOR MONEY LAUN-

Department of State in its annual International

of Primary Concern or jurisdiction’s subject to 
heightened scrutiny; 
(2) whether the Financial Action Task Force
