About The Veterans Day Parade
Every November 11th, towns across the country line their main streets and wait for the drumbeat that means the parade is coming. The color guard steps out first, flags level, and the marching band follows close behind. It's one of the few occasions left where people still stand up, take off their hats, and mean it.
