The theme of this year’s Veterans Day at the Iowa State Fair Parade will be the 50th Anniversary Commemoration of the Vietnam War. The parade will be held August 11th at 11 a.m. on the Fairgrounds in Des Moines. Instead of the usual one or two people selected as grand marshals of the parade, this year all of the Vietnam War veterans will be recognized as a Grand Marshal group.
All veterans and supporters are invited to participate, especially Vietnam War Veterans. This Friday, August 1st, is the deadline to apply to be part of the parade.
The parade honors veterans of all backgrounds…
