The resolution honors the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion, a unique unit of the United States Army composed predominantly of African-American and Latina women, which was formed after the U.S. War Department lifted the ban on their service in the Women's Army Corps in November 1944. Commissioned from February 1945 to March 1946, the battalion was tasked with sorting and clearing a significant backlog of mail for military personnel and other workers stationed in Europe during World War II. Despite facing challenging conditions, including air raids and inadequate facilities, the battalion successfully processed an average of 65,000 parcels per shift, clearing a backlog that had accumulated over several years.

The resolution acknowledges the battalion's critical role in maintaining morale among servicemembers by ensuring they received correspondence from loved ones back home. It highlights the battalion's achievements, including the development of a new mail tracking system and their ability to overcome significant postal challenges. The 6888th Battalion has been recognized posthumously for its contributions, receiving various medals and honors, including a monument dedicated to them in 2018. The resolution ultimately serves to formally recognize and honor the outstanding service and legacy of the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion.
