The Issue: The Flag Day parade in celebration of the US Army’s 250th anniversary in DC on Saturday.

The military parade that took place on Flag Day brought Americans together, displayed our country’s rich history and strength and encouraged the younger generation to consider joining the US Army.

(“ ‘Tanks’ to the prez,” June 15).

Thanks to President Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth for making this parade possible to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the Army.

There is an urgent need to bolster military recruitment — and to achieve that, the younger generation must be inspired to join the armed forces.

The parade serves that purpose.

Regardless of one’s political views, we must all support and be proud of our military.

I was happy to see patriotic Americans uniting to celebrate our Army.

Now the Trump-haters are accusing him of wasting tax dollars on a military parade.

As a veteran, I have no problem with our government celebrating the 250th birthday of the US Army.

My grandparents, my stepfather and my biological father’s family are all European immigrants who came to the United States and became legal immigrants by going through the proper protocol, as did many other citizens.

The liberals are okay with funding illegal immigrants with tax dollars but take issue with Trump honoring the US Army on its birthday.

It’s another shameful exhibit by anti-Americans.

Our American soldiers spend most of their daily lives out of our sight in the background.

They remain unnoticed in their daily routine of hard work and continuous training.

The timely celebration and recognition of our soldiers’ dedication, courage and commitment was long overdue.

Any observer of the parade could readily see the soldiers’ smiling faces and waving hands.

The looney left stewing in their own boiling bile was too busy stirring up hate and discourse to enjoy the peaceful festivities, displays of strength, sense of purpose and recognition of those who serve and protect our freedom.

On behalf of a grateful nation, this Flag Day, true patriots extended the greatest heartfelt appreciation for the unqualified devotion of soldiers who have, for the last 250 years, put themselves in harm’s way defending our democracy against tyranny.

Happy Flag Day, America, and happy birthday, US Army.

No kings!

As a staunch supporter of Trump, I understand wanting a parade to honor the 250th anniversary of the US Army, and we all want to thank them for their service.

However, I am concerned that the optics will not be beneficial to Trump, even though his leadership is stellar.

In the end, we are mostly all proud Americans who support our men and women who serve to protect.

In celebration of Flag Day, let us all remember what our beloved national symbol represents.

Our flag represents freedom, justice and equality, which is what our colonists fought for before the birth of our nation. May our flag always wave proudly across America.

Let us also remember all of the men and women in the various branches of our military for their service and dedication to protecting our country, as well as all of our past veterans who also served our country with dedication.

God bless all of these brave men and women.

Our country truly owes them an enormous debt of gratitude for all they’ve done and continue to do.
