There was a very special breakfast birthday party in Groton Thursday morning for Connecticut’s oldest living Purple Heart recipient.
It was a special birthday breakfast for a 97-year-old veteran. Frank Bennet is a regular at the Groton Townhouse. Next time you see him, you may want to thank him for his service.
“Because he’s done so much for the country in his tenure in the military,” said Warren Speh. “Something that I felt people needed to know about Frank.”
