If you know a veteran whose service to our nation deserves to be recognized, nominate him or her to join the New York State Senate Veteran’s Hall of Fame.

State Senator Michael Gianaris is seeking to honor a distinguished veteran who is also a local resident of western Queens.

“Each year one of the greatest privileges I have as a member of the State Senate is to honor a member of our community who not only served our nation but returned home and worked to improve the lives of our neighbors,” Gianaris said. “Though all of us are eternally grateful to our nation’s veterans, the Veteran’s Hall of Fame allows us to say a special thank you, and I urge anyone with a veteran in mind to come forward with a nomination.”

The selected veteran will join the online Hall of Fame and be invited to a special ceremony on May 24th at the State Capitol. Each honoree’s photo and biography will be added to a special exhibit displaying their contributions.

The deadline for nomination is Monday, April 21. Submit your nomination to Gianaris’s district office by mail at 31-19 Newtown Avenue or by email at Gianaris@nysenate.gov.

For more information, call (718) 728-0960.
