Livermore had a parade on Aug. 16th to honor the troops that have served in Iraq. We were chosen to carry the Grand Marshal - Rick Leventhal - Rick is a Fox TV News Reporter that was with the troops and reported from the front lines. After the parade there was a number of events at a local park, where the names of the 175 who died in combat was read, a 21 gun salute to honor them was presented by the troops from Camp Parks.
