President Trump Wants Military Parade On Veteran's Day

It appears that President Trump has picked a date for a massive military parade. According to a report from The Hill, Trump wants to have a parade on Veteran's Day that will start at the White House and end at Capitol Hill. 

National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster sent an unclassified memo to the Department of Defense, asking Secretary of Defense James Mattis to start planning the parade which he wants to happen on November 11th. According to Politico, the memo asked Mattis to brief the president on the "concepts of operation for this event.”

Trump got the idea to throw a giant military parade when he visited France and attended a Bastille Day parade with French president Emmanuel Macron.

“It was a tremendous day, and to a large extent because of what I witnessed, we may do something like that on July 4th in Washington,” Trump recalled when Macron visited Washington two months later. “We’re going to have to try to top it."
