The resolution posthumously honors United States Army Private First Class Noah C. Reeves for his service and sacrifice during World War II. Pfc. Reeves was killed in action on December 6, 1944, during a battle in the Hürtgen Forest, Germany, and his remains were not accounted for until 2022, nearly eight decades later. The resolution details the circumstances surrounding his death, including the temporary truce that allowed for the recovery of his identification tags by German forces, and the subsequent efforts to identify his remains, which were discovered in 1948 and later confirmed to belong to him through advanced scientific analysis.

The Alabama Legislature expresses its gratitude for Pfc. Reeves' dedication to his country and community, recognizing the impact of his sacrifice on both veterans and the nation as a whole. The resolution serves as a tribute to his memory and the enduring legacy of his service, emphasizing the importance of honoring those who have fought for freedom. A copy of the resolution will be delivered to his family as a token of appreciation for his ultimate sacrifice.
