    Our city doesn't have a Veteran's Day parade. The only parade it has is a Memorial Day parade, and even that isn't even held on Memorial Day, or even Memorial Day weekend - it is held the Sunday before Memorial Day weekend.

    I did not attend because of other commitments, but would really like to
    attend next year. Birmingham has the oldest, and largest Parade in the nation.
    We have celebrated Veterans day since Nov 11, 1945.

    I don't believe Chicago has one, though I could very well be wrong.

    10:30 PM: Edited to say: I'm wrong, there was a parade in Chicago today down by US Cellular Field. I'm sorry.

    One of my neighbors in my building asked me on Sunday why I had replaced the fall decoration on my door with a red, white and blue one (the one I usually put out for Memorial Day/Flag Day/Independence Day). I just said, "Wednesday is Veterans Day." I did see a lot of flags out today when I was driving to work.
