Shelton vet is now an American Legion national vice commander

SHELTON-In her younger days Paula Roog Stephenson spent a lot of time practicing with the Connecticut Royal Lancers Drum and Bugle Corps at Sutter-Terlizzi Post 16 of the American Legion. “I was in the color guard and so was my sister,” she said. “In the winter we practiced with the Winter Guard.” Her late father, John, and uncle,Walter were veterans and members of the post. Now Stephenson, a 1970 Shelton High and UCONN ROTC graduate has a permanent place on a wall at the Sutter-Terlizzi Post 16 and another in City Hall. It’s a framed proclamation from Mayor Mark Lauretti and the Board of Aldermen.
