Senate Joint Resolution 7, sponsored by Johnson, seeks to designate Sunday, February 2, 2025, and the first Sunday in February thereafter as "Four Chaplains Day" in Tennessee. This resolution commemorates the heroic actions of four U.S. Army chaplains—Lt. George L. Fox, Lt. Alexander D. Goode, Lt. John P. Washington, and Lt. Clark V. Poling—who displayed extraordinary courage and selflessness during World War II. On February 3, 1943, the transport ship Dorchester was torpedoed, leading to a tragic loss of life. The chaplains helped calm and guide soldiers to safety, ultimately sacrificing their own lives by giving away their lifejackets to save others.

The resolution honors the legacy of these four chaplains, who were posthumously awarded the Army Distinguished Service Medal and the Purple Heart for their bravery. It aims to memorialize their actions and inspire future generations through their example of faith and altruism. The resolution concludes with a directive for an appropriate copy to be prepared for presentation, ensuring that the memory of the Four Chaplains is preserved in Tennessee's history.
