Perch Base
Phoenix Veterans Day Parade
Perch Base took the USS Phoenix float to the Phoenix, Arizona, Veterans Day Parade on
Monday, November 11, 2019.
CAPT Pete Lumianski, USN(ret), one of the USS PHOENIX COLD WAR MONUMENT Board of Directors, "enlisted" a handful
of teens to walk with us along the parade route and hand out flyers to install the USS Phoenix Sail and Rudder in the
Steele Indian School Park.

Miss Gilbert, Danielle Skranak, who we met at the Gilbert, AZ Veterans Ceremony on November 7th, rode with us on
our trailer at this Phoenix Veterans Day Parade.
Bill Montjar still fits in his dress blues!
Let the parade begin.
Some pictures from along the parade route.
This Marine 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.
