WEST HAVEN — Thomas Whitlock believes there is one group of people that always can be counted on to help military veterans: other veterans."We will bend over backwards to help any veteran or their family as best we can," he said. Whitlock, who served in the Army for 22 years before retiring, is the board chairman of Surfside Veterans. The group, formed by a group of veterans living in Surfside Apartments, was an unofficial coalition for almost a decade before registering as a nonprofit last summer.
