Summary

HR95 is a resolution honoring the 106th anniversary of the Selfridge Air National Guard Base, recognizing its significant contributions to the military and national security of the United States. The resolution highlights the base's historical importance, being one of the first military airfields in continuous service in the country since its commission in 1917.
