ATLANTA (AP) -- The Georgia House is honoring the 45 National
Guard soldiers who have died in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Members of the House rose for a moment of silence Wednesday
before the day was named "National Guard Day" at the Capitol.
House Speaker David Ralston, flanked by commanders and soldiers
from the National Guard, also honored family members of the fallen
soldiers, some of whom were in the gallery of the House chamber.
Ralston told the family members that they will "always be part
of us, and we will never forget you."
The names of the soldiers who have died were read out loud
during the ceremony.
