From the beaches of Normandy to a Presidential Inauguration — they’ve marched in honor of America’s heroes. This November, they’re coming back to Washington, D.C. 🇺🇸The Florida Firefighters Pipes, Drums & Color Guard return for their second year at the National Veterans Parade!Led by Pipe Major Jamie Holton, the band has performed at historic sites including Normandy, Bastogne, Luxembourg and Pearl Harbor — carrying a tradition of remembrance, patriotism and service wherever they go.In 2025, they were selected to participate in President Donald Trump’s Second Inauguration and were among just seven marching units that remained in the program after extreme cold moved the traditional parade indoors.This November, they’ll march alongside two incredible WWII veterans:🇺🇸 Corporal Harold Tereans (Ret.), U.S. Army Air Corps — 351st Fighter Squadron, 353rd Fighter Group🇺🇸 Staff Sergeant Andrew Bostinto (Ret.), U.S. Army National Guard — 101st Infantry Regiment, 26th “Yankee” DivisionFrom honoring the heroes of D-Day to marching beside members of the Greatest Generation, their mission remains the same: Honor service.

🇺🇸 WE THE PEOPLE. 🇺🇸Today, September 17, we celebrate Constitution Day — the birthday of the United States Constitution.On September 17, 1787, our Founding Fathers signed a document that would become the foundation of our Republic and a symbol of the freedoms we hold dear.But for those who have worn the uniform, the Constitution means something even deeper.It is the document behind the oath.The oath to support and defend.The oath taken by Americans who raised their right hand and answered the call to serve something greater than themselves.They served not for a political party.Not for a particular administration.They served the United States of America. 🇺🇸Today, the National Veterans Parade honors every man and woman who has taken that oath — from every branch, every generation, and every walk of life.We may come from different places.We may have different stories.But the oath gives us common ground.This Constitution belongs to WE THE PEOPLE.And this November, in Washington, D.C., Veterans and Americans from across this great nation will come together to honor those who have defended the freedoms it represents.🇺🇸 Honor the Oath.🇺🇸 Honor the Constitution.🇺🇸 Honor Our Veterans.WE THE PEOPLE.ONE NATION.UNITED IN WASHINGTON, D.C.Happy Constitution Day, America. 🇺🇸#ConstitutionDay #WeThePeople #HonorTheOath #HonorOurVeterans #USConstitution #NationalVeteransParade #NVP2026 #America250 #unitedinwashingtondc ...
