Gov. M. Jodi Rell today urged Connecticut residents to submit nominations for the Connecticut Veterans Hall of Fame.
�This Hall will be a creative and lasting way to pay tribute to the brave men and women of Connecticut who have served in our armed forces and continued to serve their communities after discharge,� Rell said.
�With just a month left to submit nominations, I am asking Connecticut residents to take a few minutes to think about who should be honored in this fashion and send us their stories. Feel free to nominate a family member, a longtime friend, or a neighbor down the street.
�Essentially, the Veterans Hall of Fame is a way for us to simply say thank you to Connecticut heroes. Our veterans have demonstrated bravery and courage not only in defense of freedom but in service to their communities and the people of Connecticut.
