House concurrent resolution honoring Norwich University Athletic Hall of Fame member Harold Martin, in celebration of Black History Month

This bill honors Harold Martin, a former Norwich University cadet and Hall of Fame member, during Black History Month. It recognizes his achievements as a pioneering Black athlete, educator, and military officer who served in various sports and held leadership roles at the university. The resolution directs the Secretary of State to send a copy of the document to Norwich University's communications director. This is a ceremonial acknowledgment rather than a law with enforceable requirements.
