US EditionArmy plans for a potential parade on Trump’s birthday call for 6,600 soldiers, AP learns
- The U.S. Army plans a potential military parade on June 14, 2025, in Washington, D.C., coinciding with President Trump's 79th birthday and the Army's 250th anniversary.
- The parade follows Trump's long-standing interest since 2017 and previous halted attempts mainly due to high costs and local concerns about heavy vehicles.
- The event is expected to feature more than 6,600 soldiers representing 11 divisions, over 150 military vehicles, around 50 helicopters, seven musical ensembles, numerous civilians, and a parade route extending from Arlington into Washington, D.C.
- Army spokesman Dave Butler expressed the desire for the nation to become more familiar with the Army and its soldiers, while noting that no official approvals or cost details have been released so far.
- If approved, the parade would highlight 250 years of Army service but faces uncertainties over final planning, security designation, and infrastructure impact, including concerns about tank use.
