Appointed to the Colorado State Senate as a Republican in 2006, Ward represented Senate District 26, which encompassed southern suburbs of Denver, Colorado, centered on Littleton.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=State Senate District 26 )〕 ==Biography== Currently a resident of Littleton, Colorado, Ward has served as mayor of Glendale, Colorado and as a member of the Arapahoe County Board of Commissioners.〔 A colonel in the United States Marine Corps Reserves, Ward has served tours of active duty at Special Operations Command, in Afghanistan, at Northern Command, at the Pentagon, in Thailand assisting with recovery from the 2004 Asian tsunami and, in 2007, on an assignment in the western Pacific.〔 In August 2007, Ward was called up to active duty in Iraq as part of the 2nd Marine Expeditionary Force, where he served as a military inspector general based at Camp Fallujah. He returned from his Iraq deployment in early February 2008, several weeks into the 2008 legislative session; he was greeted with applause from fellow Senators during the morning roll call. In recognition of Sen. Wards' deployment, Senators had continuously left a lamp on in the Senate chambers during his absence. During his time in Iraq, Ward met with Colorado Governor Bill Ritter and Congressman Ed Perlmutter during their trips to the country, and also met with U.S. Army officer and Colorado state representative Joe Rice, who was stationed in Iraq at the same time. Ward is married; he and his wife, Susan, have two children: Justin and Jessica. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Senator Steve Ward )〕 While not serving on active military duty, Ward operates a real-estate business. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Steve Ward (Colorado legislator)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
