Hartford Honors Forgotten Veterans

In the rain-soaked town of Hartford, Vermont, a deeply moving Memorial Day ceremony unveiled a new monument honoring local heroes from the Korean and Vietnam Wars—and beyond. This powerful tribute, added to their World War II memorial, stands as a heartfelt thank you to those who sacrificed everything for the freedoms we cherish. For veterans like retired Colonel Brian Bettis, it’s a long-overdue recognition of service that was once overlooked, especially for Vietnam vets. With the national anthem sung by students and taps echoing at the close, over a thousand names are now etched in stone—with room for future generations. It’s a solemn, stirring reminder of the debt we owe—and the enduring legacy of those who gave their lives for our nation. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
