The resolution designates May 18 of each year as "Six Triple Eight Day" in New Jersey to honor the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion, the only predominantly African American, all-female unit deployed overseas during World War II. This unit, consisting of approximately 850 officers and enlisted personnel, was tasked with sorting and redirecting an immense backlog of mail for American service members in Europe. Despite facing significant challenges, including poor working conditions and systemic racism, the Six Triple Eight completed their mission in just three months, significantly ahead of schedule.

The resolution acknowledges the contributions of at least 28 women from New Jersey who served in the battalion, highlighting the legacy of their service and the recognition they have received, including the Congressional Gold Medal awarded in 2022. It calls for the Governor to issue an annual proclamation encouraging public officials and citizens to observe this day with appropriate programs and activities, ensuring that the achievements and sacrifices of the Six Triple Eight are remembered and celebrated.
