As a veteran of two wars, I hope President Trump’s military parade goes off as planned. We need to go back to years ago, when everybody was proud to see all the different branches of our U.S. military marching. Other countries show off their military in parades — why not us? We used to.
If President Trump succeeds, I want to thank him for making the military great again — if only symbolically.
