House Concurrent Resolution No. 149 seeks to posthumously award the Texas Legislative Medal of Honor to U.S. Navy SEAL Nathan Gage Ingram for his extraordinary bravery and service to the nation. Born on March 22, 1996, Ingram was a graduate of Byron Nelson High School and Texas Tech University, enlisting in the Navy in 2019. He completed SEAL qualification training and served as a Special Warfare Operator Petty Officer 2nd Class. Tragically, during a mission on January 11, 2024, aimed at intercepting Iranian missile components, Ingram lost his life while attempting to rescue a fellow SEAL who had fallen into the sea.

Ingram's heroism was recognized posthumously with a promotion to Special Warfare Operator First Class and several military honors, including the Navy and Marine Corps Medal. He is remembered not only for his courage but also for the love he left behind, including his wife and family. The resolution, adopted unanimously by both the Texas House and Senate, calls for the governor to officially bestow this honor upon Ingram, acknowledging his ultimate sacrifice in service to his country.
