Rep. Peterson votes in support of resolution honoring the U.S. Marine Corps on 250th anniversary

COLUMBUS – State Representative Bob Peterson (R-Sabina) this week voted in support of House Concurrent Resolution 21 to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the United States Marine Corps.

“Today, we honor 250 years of the legacy of every Marine, past and present, who has answered the call to serve with honor, bravery, and sacrifice,” said Rep. Peterson. 

The resolution states in part: “That we, the members of the 136th General Assembly of the State of Ohio, in adopting this resolution, recognize the 250th anniversary of the United States Marine Corps.”

In addition, HCR 21 recognizes the Marine Corps’ motto, “Semper Fidelis,” or “Always Faithful,” and the nearly 38,000 Marines forward deployed around the world on any given day, underscoring the Corps' role as first responders on an international scale.
