En lenguaje claro
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia Senate, not a change to state law. It recognizes Colonel (Ret.) Paul Longgrear for 26 years of service in the United States Army, including two combat tours in Vietnam and deployment near the start of the Gulf War. The resolution lists his military honors, including the Silver Star, multiple Bronze Stars for Valor, three Purple Hearts, and foreign awards from Vietnam and Germany. It also notes his training in Airborne, Ranger, and Special Forces courses, his post-graduate study at the Army War College, and his later work teaching counterterrorism and leadership at the graduate level. The Senate formally commends him and directs the Secretary of the Senate to send him a copy of the resolution.
