City Mops Show of Honor for Company B Day Parade
A September 27 celebration in Roanoke Rapids honors Company B 105th Medical Regiment before its entrainment for a year at camp. The program includes a noon barbecue, a parade up Roanoke Avenue led by the 105th Regiment Band, a civilian contingent of veterans and Boy Scouts, two softball games to raise funds, and a dirt-shoveling ceremony at the new armory site. Local officials and civic groups organize the event with school and store closures for the parade and related festivities.
