HARTFORD – U.S. Senator Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) released a statement on Sunday on the death of U.S. Navy Sonar Technician 3rd Class Ngoc T. Truong Huynh, an Oakville resident and sailor who was among those who died aboard the U.S.S. Fitzgerald in Japan.

“My heart goes out to the Huynh family for their loss. Ngoc died serving our country, a debt we cannot repay. We are all grateful for his service and sacrifice,” said Murphy. “The crash of the U.S.S. Fitzgerald is an absolute tragedy, and I intend to get to the bottom of what happened so that the families of those we lost have the answers they deserve.”
