The Senate Resolution, introduced by Senator Davis, honors the women of the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion for their exceptional service to the United States Army during World War II. This all-black unit of the Women's Army Corps, organized in late 1944 and led by Major Charity Adams, was the only WAC unit stationed overseas during the war. Faced with a significant backlog of over 17 million pieces of mail due to a shortage of qualified postal officers, the battalion worked tirelessly in challenging conditions to sort and deliver mail to troops, significantly boosting morale among soldiers who had gone years without communication from loved ones.

The resolution highlights the battalion's remarkable achievements, including sorting approximately 195,000 pieces of mail daily and completing their mission in just 90 days while overcoming segregation and inadequate resources. Their efficiency and dedication were recognized with the Congressional Gold Medal awarded by President Joe Biden in March 2022, acknowledging both their service and the societal challenges they faced. The Senate resolution formally recognizes the invaluable contributions of the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion to the war effort and the well-being of countless soldiers and their families.
