Torrance Armed Forces Day Parade 2009 

MAY 15 - 17, 2009 - NOTE - Parade is on Saturday May 16 only

Torrance CA.

Our nation's men and women of the military forces have defended our country, insured our freedom, and upheld the beliefs and principles that this great nation was built on.  In May 2009, the City of Torrance continues its long-standing tradition and marks the 50th consecutive year it has been hosting an Armed Forces Day Celebration and Parade to honor the sacrifices of our nation's past and present military.

This year, the City once again honors the men and women of our nation's military with a three-day celebration that begins on Friday, May 15 and continues through Sunday, May 17.  The Parade highlight is on Saturday, May 16, and next year's honored branch is the United States Navy.  The City of Torrance is proud to help honor and thank the men and women of our nation's Armed Forces!

Yeah, a guy on a bike snagged my 100-300mm along with my rebel on his handle bar while I was walking to the parade route. It fell onto the ground, destroying the UV filter and smashing the flash brackets on my rebel. He looked back and just kept riding. Was very lucky everything still worked fine.

Went to the movies and stopped by the displays.  Pretty good turnout of equipment.  Got shots of the flying ones.
