FIGHTING IN VIET NAM.
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH
DOES HEREBY RESOLVE, that
WHEREAS, our young men are engaged in mortal combat
In Viet Nam in support of the foreign policy commitment of
our country; and
WHEREAS, individual and clamorous groups in this
country have been attempting to undermine the foreign policy
of this nation by vociferously opposing it; and
WHEREAS, the press, radio and television have given
tremendous coverage to this opposition, which lends the er-
roneous impression to hostile nations that the majority of
our citizens do not support our commitment in Viet Nam and
are unwilling to uphold our national honor; and
WHEREAS, members of the armed forces, both here and
those fighting in Viet Nam have expressed shock and concern
over the apathy of those for whom they are fighting; and
WHEREAS, these men desire and deserve a statement
from the citizens of our Nation that we support them and
appreciate them;
