Thousands of people lined Branson Landing Blvd. and Commercial Street Saturday to witness the 90th Branson Veterans Day Parade.

The weather was mostly clear for the flyover of the Stealth Bomber that occurred as the parade was getting underway featuring around 70 units which were made up of many military groups along with area high school bands and other area groups supporting the veterans.

The parade was one of the events drawing the annual Veterans Homecoming to a close as well as the annual gala that occurred Sunday night at Chateau on the Lake.

The Veterans Day Parade can be seen on the Legends 1063 Facebook Page.
