US military parade ordered by Trump postponed 'to 2019'President Trump's plans for a Veterans Day military parade through the streets of Washington DC have been delayed until at least 2019. Mr Trump was impressed by France's Bastille Day parade on a visit in 2017 and said the US could "top it". The Pentagon said the military would march from the White House to the Capitol, and the parade would feature a "heavy air component at the end". The focus was to be on the work of US military veterans through the ages, starting with the American Revolutionary War. The US had a military parade in 1991 following the end of its successful campaign to force Saddam Hussein's troops out of Kuwait.
