M. Jodi Rell by an executive order in 2005, and the first class included President George H.W. Bush.Its goal is to recognize the post-military achievements of outstanding veterans and to spotlight the "substantial contributions of veterans to communities across the state."Those selected for this recognition are veterans who have honorably served their country through military service and "who continue to serve and inspire their fellow man."The Hall of Fame is administered and sponsored by the Connecticut Department of Veterans’ Affairs and the Connecticut Military Department.
