The Mall.

 

President Taffaro would like to invite veterans from all branches of the
military to the ceremony and to be in the parade, which will have vehicles
for the elderly or disabled veterans. Any children whose parents or siblings
are active duty service men or women serving away from home are welcome to

Everyone is invited to attend the ceremony and the brief parade meant to
honor our veterans for all of the sacrifices they have made for us. Any
