MEDIA–Delaware County celebrated its 53rd Annual Veterans Day Parade with thanks and honor to all war veterans, young and old.

Thousands of parade-goers honored Veterans Day with the 10 area school marching bands–including Paxon Hollow Middle School–numerous ROTC companies, antique cars and war vehicles, local and state officials and of course the veterans, including those in Marple Newtown, on Monday.

The 'New Greatest Generation' was the theme heard throughout the day.
