RECOGNIZING MAY 10TH AS “MAJOR GEORGE S. WELCH DAY”.
This bill designates May 10th as "Major George S. Welch Day" to honor the Delaware-born World War II pilot. It recognizes his historical significance as one of the few pilots to take off during the Pearl Harbor attack and his subsequent heroism. The resolution serves as a formal state acknowledgment of his service and legacy rather than implementing new laws or regulations.
