Hamden Veterans: Submit Your Names For Veterans' Memorial

The town is asking its veterans to submit their names to the Town Clerk's office so they can be included on the war memorial on Dixwell Ave and Whitney Ave.

The Town of Hamden is asking all resident veterans to register their names at the Town Clerk's office so they will be added to the Veterans' Memorial on in front of Hamden Middle School on Dixwell Avenue.

The memorial has been around since 1993. The New Haven Register reports that Mayor Scott Jackson said he hopes all Hamden veterans register their names so they will be added to the memorial, because it shows that, "We're honoring you, we remember you, and we will always remember you."

"This is an ongoing process,” Jackson told the newspaper. “Iraq and Afghanistan have been going on for 10 years, so any new veterans who call Hamden home should contact the Town Clerk’s office.”
