COLUMBUS—The House Transportation Committee today passed House Bill 673, legislation to designate a portion of State Route 28 in Clermont County as the CPT Louis John Speidel Memorial Highway, announced State Rep. Jean Schmidt (R-Loveland).

Born and raised in Milford, Captain Speidel lost his life while serving in Vietnam in 1971. He was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross for his heroism.

“This highway is a small way to honor and remember Captain Speidel’s legacy of bravery and selflessness, and the ultimate sacrifice he made for us all,” said Schmidt. 

House Bill 673 now moves to the House floor for a vote.
