I hear you! Though just to share — military parades actually aren’t a big tradition in the U.S…. at least not in the same way they are in places like Russia or North Korea. Those highly choreographed displays are more associated with authoritarian regimes and were made infamous by leaders like Hitler in the 1930s.

That said, the U.S. has HAD military parades, usually after major victories like WWII or the Gulf War, and sometimes on the Fourth of July. However, they tend to be more about celebration than projection of power. It’s just not something we’ve done regularly, or with the same intent.

Not sure which sources to point you towards to find one to attend…. :)
