| In Prince George’s County, the iconic “Peace Cross” in Bladensburg, MD has been under legal attack by those who want to remove this long-standing memorial to PG veterans of WWI due to “establishment of religion” issues. The matter is now pending presentation to the US Supreme Court. On April 19, 2018, I attended an event at the Peace Cross to support sustaining this landmark in the county. In attendance also was Governor Larry Hogan who awarded a citation to Second Lieutenant John Robert Pedevillano – a World War II veteran, Prisoner of War, and Purple Heart recipient. The Pedevillano family ancestors were those who gave the original land for the installation of the memorial in 1919. In one of the pictures I am shown with Governor Hogan and local friends of the Peace Cross. | ||
