U.S. Representative John P. Murtha dedicated his life to serving his country both in the military and in the halls of Congress. He had a long and distinguished 37-year career in the U.S. Marine Corps, retiring from the Marine Corps Reserve as a colonel in 1990.

He served the people of Pennsylvania's 12th Congressional District from 1974 until 2010. Until his death, Congressman Murtha was the eighth most senior member of the 435-member U.S. House of Representatives. Of the nearly 10,600 men and women who have served in the U.S. House of Representatives since 1789, only 61 had served longer than he had. In February 2010, he became the longest serving Member of Congress from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
