Detroit's Veterans Day Parade
Did you know Veterans Day itself used to be called Armistice Day, commemorating the end of WW1? Join us in Detroit next weekend for the only race in the nation that runs in harmony with the Veterans Day Parade, sharing the course and timing with Detroit's Annual Armed Services Salute. The parade, which steps off immediately after the race starts, is composed of veterans and veteran groups from around Michigan. There will be marching bands, Junior ROTC groups, hopefully some military vehicles. Lots of color, flags, banners, etc. and of course, dignitaries.
