Whereas the United States has always had strong Armed

Whereas despite segregation, minority members of the Armed

who

the call of duty; 
Whereas the bravery and sacrifice of all members of the 
Armed Forces regardless of race during World War II 
and prior conflicts is a matter of national honor; 
Whereas the integration of the Armed Forces beginning in 
1948 was a seminal event in our Nation’s history and in-
stilled the democratic ideal of equality in the military; 
and 
Whereas the continued bravery and dedication of every mem-
ber of the Armed Forces continues to be a source of

Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate
