Medal of Honor recipient, retired U.S. Army Sgt. 1st Class Sammy L. Davis, briefly speaks to a crowd at an Independence Day celebration shortly before Ill. Gov., Patrick Quinn, signed three new bills to help service members obtain work, July 4.
Davis participated in the Village of Arlington Heights’ Independence Day parade as the Grand Marshall.
One of the signed bills, House Bill 204, makes college degree requirement exemptions for certain members of the U.S. armed forces and the Illinois National Guard with interest to become Illinois State Police officers. House Bill 2563 allows service members who have at least two years of experience operating a military vehicle to bypass the state skills test in applying for commercial driver’s license. House Bill 3186, recognizes the military training and clinical experience of members of the armed forces, reserves and Illinois National Guard when they apply to be an emergency medical technician. Davis received the Medal of Honor for his conduct during the Vietnam War.
