Title 3—The PresidentProclamation 7607 of October 10,
2002General Pulaski Memorial Day, 2002By
the President of the United States of AmericaA
ProclamationAmericans celebrate our
friendship and common commitment to freedom with the people of Poland
each year on October 11, when we honor Brigadier General Casimir
Pulaski, a hero of the American Revolutionary War. As a brave Polish
patriot, General Pulaski made the ultimate sacrifice for our Nation,
giving his life in 1779 to help America gain its independence. His
devotion to liberty continues to inspire us today as we join with our
allies to secure peace and freedom around the
globe.Before joining the American Revolution in 1777,
Casimir Pulaski struggled against oppression in his native Poland,
fighting alongside his father and brothers to defend their homeland
from Prussian and Imperial Russian invaders. Though his cause was
ultimately overcome by those powerful forces, Pulaski was widely
recognized for his courageous actions as a cavalry officer and leader
of Polish forces. Benjamin Franklin lauded Pulaski as “famous
throughout Europe for his bravery and conduct in defense of the
liberties of his country.”When General Pulaski
joined General George Washington's staff, he immediately made important
contributions to the war effort. He led a critical counterattack at the
Battle of Brandywine that avoided a potential military disaster,
earning him a commission as a Brigadier General. American leaders
valued Pulaski's experience in battle, his knowledge of military
strategy, and his pioneering efforts that led to a recognition that he
was the “Father of the American cavalry.” While leading
cavalry forces in the Siege of Savannah, Pulaski was wounded, and died
on October 11, 1779.Two hundred and twenty-five years
ago, Casimir Pulaski joined forces with Americans to establish liberty
and overcome despotism. That inspiration and solidarity is mirrored
today as we engage in a war against terrorism. As part of a global
coalition, which includes the government and people of Poland, we are
working to ensure that our two nations remain strong friends and allies
in our effort to build a safer, more peaceful world for
all.NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the
United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by
the Constitution and laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim
Friday, October 11, 2002, as General Pulaski Memorial Day. I encourage
all Americans to commemorate this occasion with appropriate programs
and activities paying tribute to Casimir Pulaski and honoring all those
who defend the freedom of our great Nation.IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto
set my hand this tenth day of October, in the year of our Lord two
thousand two, and of the Independence of the United States of America
the two hundred and twenty-
seventh.B[FR Doc.
