This resolution designates September 9, 2025, as "National World War II Italian Campaign Remembrance Day" to honor American and Allied forces who fought to liberate Italy from German occupation during World War II. The date commemorates September 9, 1943, when American forces landed at Salerno to begin the liberation of mainland Italy, launching what became one of the longest continuous combat campaigns of the war lasting 602 days. The Italian campaign resulted in approximately 350,000 Allied casualties, including 150,000 American casualties with more than 60,000 killed or missing, before ending with Germany's surrender in Italy on May 2, 1945. The resolution encourages Americans to observe the day with ceremonies, education, and reflection while supporting efforts to preserve Italian battlefields, cemeteries, and historical sites. This is a symbolic resolution that requires no funding and simply establishes a day of remembrance while urging the preservation of the campaign's history for future generations.
