No foolin'! <br /><br />[I was 13, my family was doing it's "Big Eastern Seaboard" vacation, and we happened to be in the Big Apple that day. Pure coincidence. We saw the police street blocks, and my mom said "Oh, it's a Parade!" ;-D Memorable signs filed away in JCF's newly-teenaged brain: "My son's gay and that's OK", and the cheer "2-4-6-8, We Don't Overpopulate!" (The LGBT Baby Boom could not have been anticipated in that year. ;-)]<br /><br />Honestly don't remember the uniformed service members, though [Believe me, of all the articles of clothing 13 yo me saw, Army uniforms---at least of the male variety, on males!---was NOT the kind of clothing I remember! *LOL*]JCFnoreply@blogger.com
