SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

This Act may be cited as the ''Civilian Service Recognition Act of
2006''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

Congress finds the following:
(1) Many Americans are unaware that there are thousands of
civilian Federal employees serving the Nation in the dangerous
theaters of war in both Iraq and Afghanistan, and elsewhere, in
the Global War on Terror.
(2) These employees voluntarily risk their lives to serve
the Nation overseas and support the cause of freedom.
(3) The patriotism of these employees does not begin or end
in a uniform, but flows from the shining example of many of the
Nation's founding fathers, who, while not serving in the
military, sacrificed everything for the sake of liberty.
(4) In light of the new and unconventional warfare that
characterizes the Global War on Terror, it is no surprise that
thousands of these employees endure danger and injury, and
tragically death, while serving beside the Nation's troops.
(5) These brave employees serve the Nation openly and
clandestinely, contributing to the cause of freedom and
democracy in Iraq and Afghanistan and preserving the security
of the United States.
(6) The dedication and service of these employees exemplify
the giving nature of the United States, as well as the resolve
of the Nation, to spread democracy, freedom, and peace
throughout the world.
(7) These valiant employees, who have lived and died beside
the Nation's troops in war zones in the support of freedom,
should be honored with a presentation of a flag from a Nation
grateful for their service.
