ALBANY – Norwich City Police Chief and retired Sergeant Major with the United States Marine Corps Joseph Angelino was inducted into the 2012 Veterans Hall of Fame last week, honored for his years of military service and three combat tours in the Middle East.

At last week’s ceremony – held in the Well of the Legislative Office Building – Senator Tom Libous presented Angelino with a plaque, honoring his years of service, and invited the police chief to join him on his weekly cable show, where the two discussed “the many parts of the world that Angelino has travelled to serve his country,” according to a Libous press release.

Said Libous, “For his entire life Sergeant Major Joseph G. Angelino has exhibited the core values of the United States Marine Corps, ‘Honor, Courage, Commitment.’ Semper Fidelis Sergeant Major, America thanks you.”
