In plain language
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives, not a change to state law. It honors the U.S. Army's 3rd Infantry Division, based at Fort Stewart in Liberty County, for its history of service dating to 1917, and commends Brigadier General John W. Lubas and Deputy Commanding General of Support Kevin D. Bradley for their leadership. The resolution formally designates February 25, 2026, as Fort Stewart-Liberty County Day at the Capitol, an occasion for state leaders and community members to recognize the division's contributions to Georgia and the nation. It directs the Clerk of the House to prepare copies of the resolution for distribution to the division and the named officers.
