Happy Memorial Day!

Everyone loves a parade.  This crew gathered in front of the Carpenters' house on Myrtle Avenue.

World War I veterans might have felt at home in this parade car.

Westport's Memorial Day parade is not complete without Little Leaguers.

Bill Vornkahl (podium) leads his 39th Memorial Day ceremony. Seated in front from left are First Selectman Gordon Joseloff, and grand marshal Ed See. Mr. See, who was also grand marshal in 1946 -- just after World War II -- gave a powerful speech, ranging from the status of Westport veterans after World War II to the draft and torture.


Staples trumpeter Cameron Bruce plays the echo for "Taps." Joey Genetti also soloed.
