CHARLESTON, W.Va – A moment to recognize those that served the United States in the military comes back to Charleston on Tuesday, with American Legion John Brawley Post 20 holding its 84th annual Veterans Day parade.
The parade begins in downtown Charleston at 11am Tuesday, a date and time that are both meaningful.
“The 11th day, the 11th hour, we commemorate Veterans Day every November, and this is their 84th consecutive parade and ceremony,” Post 20 member and combat veteran Mara Boggs said on 580 Live with Dave Allen.
According to Boggs, Post 20’s parade has gone uninterrupted for the last 84 years, including one year that the parade was done remotely during the COVID-19 pandemic. She believes that the continued support is a credit to West Virginia’s support for those who served.
