My grandfather is being inducted into the Ohio Military Hall of Fame!

  The Delaware Gazette had a nice article about him.

  I am incredibly proud that he's being inducted. One of my heroes, not only for his military service, but not excluding it either.
  
  Is this something that happens each year? Has anyone else known someone to be inducted?

  No need to add the last line, you just wanted to post a thread to brag about your Gpa.

  I first read the title as "OH Militia HOF" and thought "congrats, redneck".
  
  But seriously, congrats to him.

  You caught me. My stealth attempt to put in unnecessary language was picked up by your keen attention to detail.
  
  Seriously, I bragged about him, but I'd also never known there was such a thing. Thought maybe other people here might know more about it.
  
  I now hang my head in shame. If I have any further questions, I will post them in seperate posts so as to keep any personal posts set apart from any inquiry posts.

  Cool. My grandfather was in Guadalcanal and the invasion of the Marshall Islands.
  
  But that's nice about your grandpa.

  Thanks.
  
  Seriously, though, has anyone heard of the Ohio Military HOF? I was curious if it was a recent thing, as there are a lot of inductees this year, per the article.
• O-Trap

  

  Ah, okay. Only been around since 2000. That explains the large class of inductees.
