As the Subscriber who submitted this video commented, “Sorry so late, but better late than never.”  It is appropriate in this week of the anniversary of 9/11 to feature this NYC event.

Veteran’s Parade – NYC Style

This Police detective did an awesome job of putting this video together.  NYC knows how to put on a Veterans Day parade!  I hope you are able to open the link, it’s something to experience.

I’m a former Marine and retired NYC Transit Police detective.  I took photos at the veterans day parade and I worked hard putting them into a video.  When I finished and viewed it, my eyes began to burn and somehow the screen became blurry.

Loyal Subscribers!  We need some help.  The purpose of our “Heart” section is to publish stories of the experiences, contributions and sacrifices of our military (Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines and Coast Guard) and public service personnel (police officers, fire fighters, EMS, merchant marines and others in the public sector) as well as stories of their families.  Please search your memory and computer for a few and send them to Bill (CPT Otis) O’Quin at boquin@ix.netcom.com for possible publication.  Thanks!
