Territory Militia in Marietta on July 25, 1788 and has fought
in every war since the War of 1812. Built in 1914, this Ohio National Guard Armory served both as Regimental and Company
B, 7th Infantry, O.N.G. Headquarters. Later Company. A, 166th Infantry, 37th Division, occupied the dual-purpose armory.
