WHEREAS, the continuation of the program for peacetime registration
for the Selective Service System contributes to national readiness
by reducing the time required for a full defense mobilization; and
WHEREAS, over one million United States citizens have sacrificed
their lives to protect the rights and freedoms of all Americans and
registration for Selective Service is an integral part of current pre-
paredness to preserve these rights and freedoms in the future; and
WHEREAS, more than 96 percent of potential registrants have reg-
istered with the Selective Service System since the resumption of
registration and by so registering have enhanced United States national
defense preparedness; and
WHEREAS, the Selective Service System has been tasked with assisting
in the process of improving our readiness by calling upon eighteen year
old male citizens to comply with the law by simply registering their name,
address, date of birth and social security number at the Post Office within
thirty days of their eighteenth birthday;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Hugo City Council does hereby
support continuation of registration with Selective Service and does
hereby declare April, 1986 as
REGISTRATION AWARENESS MONTH
Adopted and Passed this 7th day of April, 1986.
