The Bristol Memorial Day parade stepped off as schedule this morning. The more solemn of the city’s two parades — the other in Forestville was held later in the day– as usual put the focus on the city’s veterans with representatives from those who fought in World War II and onward. The parade proceeded to Memorial Boulevard to give remembrance to those in the military who gave their lives for the country.
Here is what spectators saw this morning.
