Start Over

Event: Lee County Armed Forces Day parade
Where: Giddings, TX
When: May 13th, 2017

After a morning of heavy rain, the weather cleared up enough for a dry parade, and display afterward, with the rain returning as soon as it was all over. Very considerate!

Attending were Tim B with his M715, Jim H with his M38A1, James and Amanda H in their M1009, Domingo M in his M1009, Patrick and Rory C in their M1009, and Dan C driving Madison's M37. We were joined by another M38A1 from the Marine Corps League, and a lovely WWII Chrysler staff car.

After the parade, we returned to our display area for the ceremonies. Also manning the display were Madison H and Danny K, with a welcome appearance by Claude V.

Once the event had wound down and all the display items were packed up, we watched the Apache helicopter depart. As soon as it flew off, the rains returned, and the rest of us beat a sensible retreat for home.
