The Annual Bogota Memorial Day parade was held today. Joining the parade were active duty members from Fleet. From the Spanish naval ship Juan Sebastian DeElcano 4th year Mid-shipment. Sailors from the USS Roosevelt. And members of Charlie Company 1st Battalion 9th Marines. Who were warming welcomed by the citizens of Bogota for their service to the country.
I thought a few years ago that the parade had been discontinued. I'm delighted to learn it's still going on! I have many happy memories of marching in that parade as a member of the junior high and high school bands under Mr. Dente from 1959 through 1964.
