The date of this issue is Veterans Day, November 11.  The Resident Team is proud to pay tribute to all those who have fought in defense of the United States.  We honor those who served and are serving today, in an ongoing effort to preserve the freedoms that we enjoy in our great country. November 11th marks the anniversary of the signing of the Armistice that ended World War I on the eleventh hour of the eleventh month in 1918.

The AmericanWarrior is an organization founded by State Representative Christopher Coutu in 2007.  Its mission is to fly as many WWII veterans as possible to their memorial in Washington, D.C..  Chris is a lieutenant in the National Guard and he believes that his mission helps in renewing a sense of patriotism in our region.  With this spirit of patriotism comes pride for our communities and country.  Read about awesome Chris and how he began his mission here.

Today, loved ones are away from family, friends and the comforts we enjoy here on our homeland.  We ask you to say “thank you” with us as you read the stories of local heroes within the pages of this issue.

Also, here, is a special community tribute to Ron Aliano, friend, business champion, entrepreneur, and community leader.  Ron left us on Halloween.  He will be missed by ALL.  We will continue to enjoy the fruits of his labor in his beloved Rose City.  Now, it’s up to us to continue Ron’s legacy in Norwich and our great region!
