Establishes March 9th as 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion Day in Delaware.
Delaware HB68 amends the state code to designate March 9th as 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion Day. This day commemorates the achievements of the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion, the only all African-American, all-female battalion deployed to the European Theater during World War II. The Battalion, known as the "Six Triple Eight," excelled in processing a significant backlog of mail for U.S. military personnel stationed in Europe. The bill encourages citizens to honor postal employees by writing and mailing letters.
