Parade Rotation

The Chattanooga Area Veterans Council began sponsorship of the Armed Forces Day Parade and Celebration in 1994 during the administration of CAVC Chairman Bill Carman.  The parade had been an annual event since 1949 and was in danger of being canceled.  The first parade with CAVC involvement was a salute to Veterans for 1995.
A rotation of services was begun in 1956.
After the 1995 salute to veterans the rotation picked up by the CAVC was:

1996 Air Force
1997 Marine
1998 Coast Guard
1999 Navy
2000 Army
