Patriot Guard and Associates:
Sadly, we are called to stand for Frank W. Forrest, U.S. Army, Vietnam.
In 1968, Frank was drafted into the United States Army and served in Vietnam as a Chaplain’s Assistant. He earned a Bronze Star and brought home amazing photos and stories from his tour. Frank went on to advocate for service members, veterans, and the veteran community. He served as Post Commander of Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Post 7659 in Glastonbury and Post 2083 in East Hartford. In 2017, he founded an organization called SOS Connecticut, an effort to collect and ship care packages to service members overseas—personally ensuring that troops knew their hometown was thinking of them.
We will stand a Flag Line for the Celebration of Life which is at 1000hs at the church.
RC Kevin Rancourt will be RCIC (860-819-4199)
God Bless America, Our Troops and Our First Responders.
