Black Canyon City Veterans Day Parade
Perch Base took the USS Phoenix float to the Black Canyon City, Arizona, Veterans Day Parade on
Saturday, November 9, 2019.
They were so pleased to have us back that they have already extended an invitation for 2020.
Of course, the first thing we had to do was stop at the Rock Springs Cafe along our way for a slice of
pie and a cup of coffee.

Do We Have A Prayer? . . . YES!
These GENTLEMEN from the Freedom Biker Outreach Motorcycle Ministry saw our group of Submarine Veterans
and asked if they could say a prayer over us!
Ready to roll!
This gent along the parade route was wearing a Purple Heart cap from his Vietnam combat. I had to stop and say "Thank your for your sacrifice," and asked him if I could take his picture. We then saluted each other.
More photos along the Black Canyon City Parade route. (All 500 yards of it!)
Photos of the other parade entries. It is staggering how many entries they have for such a small town!
Who is that driving that mustard colored 1957 Ford Fairlane? That is Perch Base and Holland Club member Steve Stanger!
