great nation; and

to the men and women who have served, or are currently serving, in the
armed forces; and
WHEREAS, there are 3.6 million veterans in California, many of
them from the Lake Elsinore Valley; and
WHEREAS.. many of those who left their homes and families to
fight in other lands suffered trauma, disablement, and sometimes death
on our behalf; and
WHEREAS, war has left an uncertain legacy in the form of
physical and psychological health problems; and
WHEREAS, the debt we owe to all veterans is often not fully
expressed and appreciated; and
WHEREAS, many diverse veteran groups throughout the state are
working to honor the contributions made by veterans to the continuance of
our state and nation and the freedoms we enjoy;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City

November 23, 1981 as Veterans Recognition Month, and, further, we call
upon all Californians to acknowledge the sacrifice and to recognize the
