Rep. John Knight

From South Union Street:

State Rep. John Knight was recognized during the last day of the 2009 legislative session for his military service during the Vietnam War.

For his heroism during the war, Knight received the silver star.

The Silver Star is the third highest military decoration and is awarded for “gallantry in action against an enemy of the United States.”

Many thanks to Rep. Knight (and all of the other veterans) who served our country with both pride and distinction.

    John Knight is a gentleman, a patriot, a friend, and occasionally a formidable adversary. Such is the nature of the legislative politics.
