The parade had ended before I got there, but I stood in the park, listened to speeches, and sang along with the excellent rendition of The Star Spangled Banner. I held my hand long on my heart.
Then I wandered around, and from the back of the crowd took pictures.
A striking scene was this lone horn standing on the grass among this military band.
Is this a parallel to the horseless rider portraying the fallen? I’ve tried to find the answer today, but have been unsuccessful. Do any of you know?
