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.

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
