Onlookers of all ages gathered to watch the 34th annual Lough Legacy Veterans Parade hosted by The Historic Trust at Fort Vancouver on Saturday.

Dozens of local organizations and groups marched to honor veterans this year: marching bands from local schools, old tractors from the Fort Vancouver Antique Equipment Association, a hoard of Corvettes, local cub and boy scout troops, and many others filled the streets as onlookers cheered their appreciation for veterans.
