Honoring our Veterans

November 10, 2015

We are arguably living on the safest nation in the world and that safety and security are largely due to our military.

By honoring our Veterans, we remember their valor and we take time to reflect on why they serve.

They fight to preserve the values of America, your freedom and mine.

When in Hartford at the Capitol Complex take some time and visit the new State Veterans Memorial. It is located inside of Minuteman Park at the intersection of Capitol Avenue and Broad Street in Hartford – directly in front of the State Armory.

The memorial pays tribute to the more than 1.3 million Connecticut men and women who served honorably in the U.S. military in defense of our freedom. The site recognizes past, present, and future Connecticut veterans.

Please, thank a Veteran today for their service to our great country.
