H.R. 23: Belated Thank You to the Merchant Mariners of World War II Act of 2005, provides $1,000 per month to WWII mariners (average age 81) or their widows in lieu of benefits not received after World War II. The Bill also gives Social Security credit for time served in the the merchant marine, like the credit given to others who served in the Army or Navy.

We thank the 157 Members of Congress who cosponsored HR 3729 in 2004. The bill died in Committee and was never voted on. H.R. 23 was introduced in the 109th Congress by Bob Filner on January 4, 2005.
