AI Summary

This concurrent resolution urges Congress to recognize and honor United States troops who served in Honduras between 1981 and 1992. The resolution highlights that U.S. military personnel maintained a presence in Honduras during this period, providing training, conducting military exercises, and serving as a deterrent to regional aggression. The troops were equipped with live ammunition, assisted the Honduran military, and experienced hostile fire and imminent danger, with at least one service member receiving a Purple Heart due to terrorist activity. The resolution specifically calls on Congress to issue an Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal or similar recognition to all U.S. troops who served in Honduras during this timeframe. Additionally, the resolution directs the Secretary of State to forward copies of the resolution to key congressional leaders and the North Dakota Congressional Delegation, emphasizing the importance of formally acknowledging the service and sacrifices of these military personnel.
