Expressing gratitude and appreciation for the bravery and valor of the Allied forces who participated in the Normandy landings on the 80th anniversary of Operation Overlord.
HRES 1284 is a ceremonial resolution commemorating the 80th anniversary of the Normandy landings (D-Day) on June 6, 2024. It honors Allied forces who participated in the 1944 invasion, acknowledging their bravery, the scale of the operation (including 156,000 troops and 6,900 vessels), and the over 225,000 casualties. The resolution calls for the U.S. House to recognize the anniversary through commemorative ceremonies and emphasizes the importance of preserving the legacy of World War II veterans as their numbers decline. It does not create new laws or allocate funds, serving solely as a symbolic tribute to historical events.
