Community gathers for annual Veterans Day parade
JACKSON, Tenn.—Community members show support for our local veterans at an annual parade.
This weekend many residents came together to support our veterans here in Hub City.
Saturday, the parade began at the Carl Perkins Civic Center and continued through Main Street.
Many branches were out such as the National Guard, Army, Air Force and more.
JCM’s Mass Band was present filling the streets with amazing music.
“You got Marines here , you got Airforce, you got sailors, you got Army soldiers, there are probably some Space Force soldiers here that are veterans. So, I think veterans represent the best of America and this is a great opportunity to celebrate the sacrifices that they’ve made,” said Warner Ross, Agent General, Tennessee National Guard.
