Marching for veterans ...
- Thu, Nov, 13, 2008
Veterans Day is an annual American holiday honoring military veterans. It’s celebrated as Armistice Day or Remembrance Day in other parts of the world, falling on Nov. 11, the anniversary of the signing of the Armistice that ended World War I. (Major hostilities of World War I were formally ended at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918 with the German signing of the Armistice.) Farragut Middle and Bearden High schools bands were among several Knox County Schools participating in the 83rd Annual Veterans Day Parade presented by American Legion Knoxville Post 2, Tuesday, Nov. 11, in downtown Knoxville.
