Celebrate our past and present troops with the city of Boston on November 11, 2008 with the annual Veteran’s Day Parade that is scheduled to begin at the corner of Beacon and Trement Streets at the Boston Common. With local marching bands playing the traditional patriotic tunes and area veterans’ organizations making a showing, the whole family can support our country’s heroes. Watch as local citizens’ floats take to the road, pass out candy, and entertain the crowd! Known as one of the most popular Veteran’s Parades in the country, you can show your support along with thousands of others that line the Boston streets.
