2011 Philadelphia Saint Patrick's Day Parade
One again the 69th Pa "Irish Volunteers" marched in the Philadelphia Saint Patrick's day Parade - our 17th year. The night before, our band performed at the Sumney Tavern in Lansdale, Pa helping to raise more funds for preservation and gravestones.
"left.. left...left - right - left "
Marching in time we parade down the Parkway in Philadelphia.
Our soldiers line up for the parade
Flags waving in the breeze the 69th on parade
Firing as they go, the 69th delights the onlookers
Testing and checking our rifles before the event
Wheeling left we turn the corner
Officers in front we parade
down the Parkway
Sergeant Meehan and his ever present smile
The Band Plays at the Sumney Tavern
