Delaware bill calls for honoring 6888th Battalion each March 9

The signed measure would name March 9 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion Day. The designation would apply across Delaware. Delaware should mark the day with ceremonies honoring the battalion's members. The named day would fall on March 9 each year, but the measure gives no date when the designation takes effect.

The measure would encourage Delaware residents to write and mail letters. Residents could write to family, friends, service members, or veterans. The invitation aims to recognize postal workers and the work they do to connect people. The invitation would apply when people mark March 9; the measure gives no date when it takes effect.
