Veterans Day Parade New York City 2008
In honor of our brave vets, I went to the Veterans Day Parade on Fifth Avenue today and took a few shots during my lunch break. I was happy to see that there were even more spectators this year than last year's parade, which was just as wonderful.

The lady in this wonderful car is the nurse who appeared in the famous photo taken at the end of World War II kissing the sailor in Times Square.

I'm SO Glad you were able to get there and capture some of the spirit of the parade on Fifth Avenue!
I was afraid you weren't going to make it this year!
I posted a link in my report.

Thank you for taking these wonderful pictures. Those are my boys. There is my heart - marching down those streets.
God bless them. Thanks so much .
thats lovely, thanks much
Those pictures could have been taken at nearly any Veteran's Day Parade. All of those elements were in our parade out here on the West Coast. Too bad I was busy trying to get everything lined up for the parade, or I would have taken pictures myself.
