Petaluma Veterans Day Parade draws thousands to honor veterans

The streets of downtown Petaluma are lined with little American flags, kids catching candy and people in uniform driving by in all sorts of vehicles. photo credit: Shandra Back/KRCB The streets of downtown Petaluma are lined with little American flags, kids catching candy and people in uniform driving by in all sorts of vehicles.

My wife is here, and my two kids, and they all sacrificed for me to be able to serve. I gave up lots. I was a reservist for most of my time and I had to give up a lot of weekends and deployed all over the country and had to leave them behind and they had to hold down the fort while I was gone. It takes a lot to do that,"
