Thousands support veterans during annual parade in Downtown Las Vegas

A sea of red, white, and blue was draped across Downtown Las Vegas Monday. Thousands of locals came out to show their support, honoring our veterans during the Las Vegas Veterans Day Parade.

“To see everybody out here today, it’s amazing, the support is really overwhelming and emotional,” said Sandra Dubuc, the wife of an Army and Air Force veteran.

Dubuc says she wishes this support to veterans was shown year-round.

“I honestly don’t think that veterans get enough acknowledgment and also the families who support them,” Dubuc said.

Days like this put a smile on Dubuc’s face, seeing the community’s support for past and present veterans.

Dubuc was joined by thousands of veterans, their friends and families, and so many more locals supporting those in our military.

Ryan: Do you feel that support, do you feel that recognition for your service?

“Oh yeah, strong support, I really enjoy it,” said U.S. Army Veteran Manuel Perez.
