From San Marcos Record: The Veterans Day Parade was one of the most colorful in recent years. Among the main units in the parade were the band organizations of the college, high school and Academy, the motor vehicles of the local National Guard unit, the fire department equipment, the Girl Scouts, the Cub Scouts and numerous vehicles carrying almost every organization in the city. Marshalling the parade was J.R. Buckner, a man who has done this service for a number of years.
