The VMI Corps of Cadets have been selected to march in the Presidential Inaugural Parade on January 21st 2013.
I just think it is cool. What an honor.
You're right, it's awesome! It's basically a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and what better place to represent?
Norwich's Band Company will be there too, just got word today!
and I found a picture of me marching in the Inaugural Parade in 1977- you will recognize me - I'm the one wearing the Grey with the Red Cape and looking left.Col Keith Gibson narrates a pretty good short video on the parade. Keith is the director of the VMI museum and like me- marched in the Carter Inauguration parade.
It's a pretty exciting event - and will be more so as time goes on.
And between now and then- MERRY CHRISTMAS!
