REQUESTING THE DIVISION OF GENERAL SERVICES TO PLACE APPROPRIATE AND CONSPICUOUS RED, WHITE, AND BLUE RIBBONS ON THE ASSEMBLY STREET, GERVAIS STREET, AND SUMTER STREET SIDES OF THE STATE HOUSE GROUNDS IN HONOR OF THE BRAVE AND SELFLESS SERVICEMEN AND SERVICEWOMEN REPRESENTING OUR COUNTRY IN THE PERSIAN GULF REGION.
Whereas, American citizens are deeply appreciative of the dedication and the sacrifices of our servicemen and servicewomen in the Persian Gulf region; and
Whereas, we want them to know that we support them wholeheartedly and anxiously await their safe return to the United States; and
Whereas, the "red, white, and blue ribbon" symbolizes the hope and prayers of all Americans for the wonderful men and women serving in our armed forces in that war-torn area of the globe; and
Whereas, it would be entirely fitting, as well as expressive of South Carolinians' feelings and hopes, to place three large red, white, and blue ribbons in conspicuous places on the State House grounds in honor of those who are representing us in circumstances of extreme danger. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
That the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina, by this resolution, requests the Division of General Services to place appropriate red, white, and blue ribbons on the Assembly Street, Gervais Street, and Sumter Street sides of the State House grounds, which will be easily visible to passing motorists, in honor of the brave and selfless servicemen and servicewomen representing our country in the Persian Gulf region.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the director of the Division of General Services..
