The bill introduced in the 136th General Assembly designates October 1st as "761st Tank Battalion Day" in the state of Ohio. This new recognition aims to honor the contributions and legacy of the 761st Tank Battalion, a notable unit in American military history.
To implement this designation, the bill enacts a new section, 5.2322, in the Revised Code, which states that the first day of October is officially recognized as "761st Tank Battalion Day." This addition to the law serves to commemorate the achievements of the battalion and promote awareness of its historical significance.
