Honor Your Loved One and Support House of Heroes

House of Heroes honors Veterans that we serve at each project with a ceremony and flag tribute.
We feel all Veterans and Public Service Veterans (police and firemen) should be honored for their dedicated service.
You can honor a friend, a loved one, or special family member for their service by making a donation to the HOH Wall of Honor. You can choose a level of giving and see your deserving veteran honored on this very special page.
​
All military veterans current active duty or retired (Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, National Guard

A Veteran is a person who has had long experience in a particular field.

Gen. John L Hoar served our country with honor during WWII, the Korean War, and finally the State of CT being the Commander in Chief of the CT Air National Guard at Bradley Airport. Thank you, Dad, for your service to our nation. Love from your family.
Stanley Anthony Buden
Private First Class
US ARMY
​
My father was a Greatest Generation veteran, proud of his service in the Army during World War II. A native of New Britain, CT. He served primarily in the South Pacific and at one point, ironically, was stationed on New Britain Island. He always felt fortunate not to have been on the "front lines," instead staying back and serving as a cook for the troops at various bases. Thank you, Dad, for your service and inspiring your children to be proud Americans.
Bernard Swillinger
Sergeant
US Air Force
​
Bernard joined the Air Force during the height of the Vietnam War with the intent of making it his career. He wanted to follow in his father’s (who was a Chief Master Sargent) footsteps. Bernard served for 4 years, but illness sidelined his plans to continue. He was proud to have served. He went on to work at Sikorsky Aircraft where he became an Aircraft Electrician.
Edward G. Litherland

US ARMY
