The U.S. Army is planning a historic parade through the streets of Washington, D.C., on June 14 that will coincide with and be part of the Army’s long-planned 250th celebration.
The parade will involve some 6,600 soldiers, tanks and infantry vehicles, helicopter flyovers and parachute jumps, according to several people familiar with the planning effort, and will also occur on Donald Trump’s 79th birthday.
The timing and White House involvement in planning efforts have stoked speculation that Trump is using the Army’s birthday as an excuse to get the kind of grand military parade he wanted during his first term in office. That event was scrapped after estimates topped $90 million.
How is this making America great again? Why not just put out some floats? Why do we need to roll out the real equipment and spend millions while people are losing healthcare, SS and 401k?
I rather divide the 90 million and give every school in America 900 bucks.
