Senate Resolution No. 631 honors the nonprofit organization Sons of the Flag, based in Dallas, for its dedicated support of burn injury survivors, their families, and the medical professionals who treat them over the past 13 years. Founded in 2012 by Ryan "Birdman" Parrott, a Purple Heart recipient and former Navy SEAL, the organization has expanded its mission from a state-level initiative to a national effort, providing funding for research, fellowships, and support systems for veterans, first responders, and civilian burn survivors. Sons of the Flag has significantly contributed to the medical field by funding fellowships that increase the number of accredited burn surgeons and supporting innovative technologies, such as the shortwave infrared camera for advanced triage.

The resolution acknowledges the personalized assistance the organization offers to burn survivors and their families, including medical supplies, expense relief, and access to specialized programs. It also highlights the group's advocacy efforts to raise public awareness about the profound impacts of burn injuries. The Texas Senate expresses its sincere appreciation for Sons of the Flag's contributions to improving the quality of life for those affected by burn injuries and extends best wishes for their continued success. An official copy of the resolution will be prepared as a token of high regard from the Texas Senate.
