SAN ANGELO, Texas (Concho Valley Homepage) — Hundreds of residents gathered in downtown San Angelo to watch the 20th Annual Veterans Day Parade make its way through the city on Nov. 11 at 11 a.m.

Concho Valley Homepage streamed the parade live as it made its way through town.

Though the parade is held to honor all veterans and observe Veterans Day each year, this year’s celebration was dedicated to the veterans of the Gulf War.

Floats, cars, horses and more all carved their way through downtown. Many floats threw candy for onlookers to enjoy, while others played live or prerecorded music for the crowds.
