2019 Auburn Veterans Day Parade Photos

It was a cloudy-drizzly day for the 54th annual Auburn Veterans Day Parade.

CPO Davis and WWII Vet Ralph carried the flags for the Submarine Veteran groups

Members from Seattle USSVI Base, Bremerton USSVI Base, and Silent Service Motorcycle Club all showed up. Before things got started, we got a few group photos.

Turnout was a little lighter than normal, but it was a good time and great to see all the veterans out for the parade.Here are some more photos from the parade.

After our group photos, there were last-minute preparations for the parade and some time to chat.

Then we had a flyover by the King County Sheriff helicopters and it was time to start the parade.
