Veterans Parade Lights Midtown Miami With Massive Turnout
Thousands of World War II veterans led a long American Legion parade through midtown Miami as banners shimmered and music played. B 29s and a six engined B 36 roared overhead while a Marine detachment led the march in white helmets and dress uniforms, drawing an estimated 350000 to 400000 spectators. A Montana earthquake struck Helena in the afternoon, described as moderate and lasting about three seconds with no damage reported.
