The National Memorial Day Parade
Washington, DC




Medal of Honor Recipients


Purple Heart Recipients

Veterans re-enacting the Iwo Jima Memorial... by far my favorite float.


Every flag was donated individually and came with a card from the person who donated it-- mine was from Ellen Hunt of Leedy, FL a retired USAF nurse of 30 years. Her message was "God Bless You-- God Bless America."
