Gov. Dannel P. Malloy named a U.S. Army reservist and ethics officer for Pratt & Whitney to oversee Connecticut’s Department of Veterans Affairs Thursday afternoon.
Lt. Colonel Sean Connolly lives in Hebron and serves with the 655th Regional Support Group, headquartered at Westover Air Reserve Base in Chicopee, Massachusetts. He currently works at Pratt & Whitney as the global ethics and compliance officer. An attorney, Connolly previously served more than seven years on active duty as an Army judge advocate in a variety of positions.
A veteran of Operation Iraqi Freedom, he was a prosecutor at Fort Campbell, Ky., and in Kuwait and Iraq.
“As a veteran myself, who continues to wear the uniform in the Army Reserve, I am deeply humbled and grateful for this chance to serve the veterans of the State of Connecticut,” Connolly said in a statement.
“Our veterans and their families face significant challenges against homelessness, physical and mental health 
concerns, finding and transitioning to good civilian jobs, and getting the support they so deeply deserve. Working together, we will build a world-class Veterans’ Affairs program. Those who have selflessly served our state and nation deserve no less.”
