Expresses the sense of the Congress that: (1) all members of the armed forces who were engaged in combat in Panama are deserving of formal recognition; (2) all such members who are not eligible for the Combat Infantry Badge should receive a similar award, as should all members who perform such function in the future; and (3) the armed forces should base a decision on whether to award such recognition solely on the member's performance and not on the person's gender.
