Littleton NH does a small town Memorial Day Parade. This is a high school marching band. I saw one young girl marching by in flip flops. I hope her feet are good and tough. Used to be the marching units would toss candy to small children. The nanny state got loose this year and forbade candy as a safety hazard. Our tax dollars at work.
Decent turnout, all things considered. We had our US Rep (Charlie Bass) our selectmen, some of our state reps, a state senate candidate (Debi Warner) and a lot of veterans.

My brother was the featured speaker. He is a combat veteran of both Viet Nam and Iraq. He retired from the guard after his tour in Iraq. John has done a bit more for the country than I, I just served in Viet Nam.
