Whereas the United States Merchant Marine served as the

Whereas since 1775, United States Merchant Mariners have 
served valiantly in times of peace and in every war; 
Whereas after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, 
29 United States Merchant Marine Academy cadets oper-
ated a fleet of boats in New York Harbor, transporting 
firefighters and other emergency equipment workers, 
medical supplies, and food; 
Whereas today, more than 8,000 Merchant Mariners serve in 
the Military Sealift Command, most of them working in 
support of Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation En-

Whereas the United States Merchant Marine Academy is the

dets into war, and 142 undergraduates of the Academy

Whereas during World War II, Merchant Mariners served 
honorably in combat but were denied veterans benefits 
and recognition at the end of the war despite sustaining

ices; 
Whereas more than 95 percent of the Allied Forces and ma-
teriel that was transported during World War II was 
transported by Merchant Marine ships; 
Whereas the Merchant Mariners of World War II were denied 
the unprecedented benefits of the Servicemen’s Readjust-
ment Act of 1944 (known as the ‘‘GI Bill of 1944’’); 
Whereas the story of the United States Merchant Mariners 
of World War II is one of patriotism, of youthful exu-
berance, of dedication to duty, of bravery in the midst of 
battle, and of a Nation that forgot these heroes after the 
end of the war for more than 40 years until 1988, when 
they were given veteran status; 
Whereas by that time, over 125,000 of those Merchant Mari-
ners had died and many had lost out on opportunities 
and benefits they greatly deserved; and 
Whereas, on National Maritime Day, Congress recognizes the 
tremendous sacrifices and contributions of the Merchant 
Marine and its veterans and the entire maritime industry 
to the Nation: Now, therefore, be it
