The House Concurrent Resolution commemorates the 250th anniversary of the establishment of the U.S. Navy, highlighting its historical significance and the contributions of veterans, particularly those residing at the Vermont Veterans Home. The resolution traces the origins of the Navy back to 1775, when the Continental Congress took steps to create a naval force to protect American interests during the Revolutionary War. It notes the Navy's evolution, including its temporary closure after the war and subsequent re-establishment in 1794 due to new maritime threats.

The resolution expresses pride in the service of U.S. Navy veterans, especially those living in Vermont, and acknowledges the national observance of this milestone, which includes the issuance of commemorative postage stamps. It concludes by directing the Secretary of State to send a copy of the resolution to the Vermont Veterans Home, ensuring that the contributions of these veterans are recognized and celebrated.
