Boing Boing Staging

Trump's military parade planned for Veterans' Day. No tanks. And, no thanks.

President Donald Trump’s fantasy war parade will come to life on Veterans Day, and you’re paying for it.

The military march he demanded the nation hold in his honor, which most U.S. veterans do not want, is now scheduled to take place in Washington D.C. this November. He wanted tanks and other war vehicles, but to minimize damage to roads, the Pentagon memo released on Friday says there will be no tanks. And we say, no thanks.

The memo goes on to list various guidelines for the November 11 event.

“Include wheeled vehicles only, no tanks – consideration must be given to minimize damage to local infrastructure,” the memo says.

Wonder if he’ll get to sit in the big boy truck again this time.
