AI Summary

This resolution designates September 19, 2025, as "POW/MIA Recognition Day" in Pennsylvania, acknowledging the profound sacrifices of prisoners of war (POW) and those missing in action (MIA). The resolution highlights that since World War II, nearly 82,000 Americans remain missing, and many former prisoners of war are still living. It emphasizes the unthinkable pain experienced by the families of soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines who have not returned home, and recognizes that federal law requires the POW/MIA flag to be displayed on prominent federal buildings and national war memorials. The resolution pays tribute to these service members, renewing a pledge to continue efforts to bring missing service members home and to never forget their patriotism, while acknowledging the debt owed to these individuals who courageously safeguarded the country and its ideals.
