Newly Passed Bill Honors Veterans who Choose Service Careers Upon Returning to Ohio

Ohio House Speaker Cliff Rosenberger has formally signed off on recently passed legislation that designates November 10th each year as “Armed Services, Peace Officer, First Responder and Dual Service Recognition Day” in the Buckeye State.

“Members of the military have career opportunities that fold over to real jobs here in Ohio. There’s no easier area, quite frankly, whether you are an MP or whether you are in the medical field in the military, that transfers easier over to the real world environments of emergency services.”

The new Dual Service Recognition Day is an effort to recognize those veterans who leave the military and pursue a career where they run towards danger as part of their daily job.
