Aaron’s Mechanical Service Remembers Our Veterans

The Veterans Day National Ceremony is held each year on November 11th at Arlington National Cemetery . The ceremony commences precisely at 11:00 a.m. with a wreath laying at the Tomb of the Unknowns and continues inside the Memorial Amphitheater with a parade of colors by veterans' organizations and remarks from dignitaries. The ceremony is intended to honor and thank all who served in the United States Armed Forces.

Here are some local Veterans Day Tributes;

Veterans Day Parades
Parades honoring the nation's veterans are set for Phoenix, Tempe, and other valley cities as well as Prescott and Tucson.

The popular Phoenix parade dates back to 1996, picking up a major sponsor, Phoenix VA Health Care System, the next year. The VA sponsored the event until last year.

Arizona Public Service and Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Plant stepped up to sponsor the beloved parade, which is now presented by Honoring Arizona's Veterans. Other sponsors include General Dynamics, KTAR, 3TV, Law Tigers, Choice Hotels International and United Healthcare Military & Veterans.

Tens of thousands of people are expected to line the parade route.

The parade steps off at 11:00am from North Phoenix Baptist Church at Central Avenue and Bethany Home Road. Nearly 100 groups, including bands, floats, marching units and military vehicles, will make their way south on Central Avenue, turning east on Camelback Road and then south again on Seventh Street, ending at Seventh Street and Indian School Road at 2 p.m.

Veterans Tribute Ride
An expected 500 motorcycle enthusiasts and the community will come together at the Veterans Tribute Ride to honor all branches of our armed services and our veterans. Proceeds benefit Operation Santa Claus and other Arizona charities.
