Vietnam War veteran Henry Thayorath raises the Laotian flag during a service today at the Greater Middletown Military Museum. The ceremony announced legislation by U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal to honor the sacrifice and contributions of the Special Guerrilla Unit (SGU) during the Vietnam War by designating a national memorial in Middletown. In referring to the service of the SGU, whose losses and casualties remain uncertain due to the secrecy of their mission, Blumenthal said, "This national memorial will show them the honor they deserve. Will recognize the pride that they should have and will educate Americans about what they did. And, perhaps, lead to recognition of other similar allies as in Afghanistan."(Mark Mirko/Connecticut Public)
