- These are some old film clips showing the John Marshall High School Corps of Cadets, the local Richmond Howitzers (The Richmond Blues and the Richmond Grays), along with some actual living Confederate Veterans during a parade down Monument Avenue in Richmond in 1918 during World War I. The parade ended at the Virginia State Capitol grounds.
Half the high school kids had infantry rifles and there were no school shootings.
Bob Flendorg Those days were great, but they are gone forever. Today's kids should not be allowed to handle firearms.
I graduated high school in 1995 and guns and knives were an everyday occurrence in the school parking lot and amazingly everyone lived! 👍
That was when you could trust folks to do right!!
How do you know for sure? Guns and anyone just doesn't add up all the time, sometimes kids get in the way of flying bullets thrown by full adults. Not an anti gun guy, but say gun owners should keep a better watch on their guns.
In my opinion that was a much better time to have lived in. I think the times that we are living in now, have really changed for the Worse !
Yh miss the world wars and the famines.
Concur and we have sub-human BLM and Antifa thugs that are the Gestapo arm of today's democrap (democrat) party.
@56bluegold: Whether or not those times were "better" would largely depend on who you were/are.
God bless those Confederate Veterans and all veterans
This was fantastic to see the veterans, God bless them all!❤️
Much respect, salute to you all.
My Grand father was there.
t Mann God Bless Him and thanks to him for his service.
cool
Gob Bless these noble men
Pretty neat.. I like this kinda party! Merry Christmas everybody!
What those old Civil War veterans must've thought seeing trucks, tanks and artillery pieces being pulled by truck. Probably, "Hmm .. if we had had those things.......we would have defeated the Yankees".
I think the correct term is "damn yankee!"
jimmy baker But they couldn't make anything. The Union would have had them instead.
@@nora22000 I had a sneaky suspicion you would show up
True Dat,@@nora22000!
So beautiful.
Correction: I think the first shot is Broad St. Some of the later shots are indeed on Monument Ave.
Maybe one of those little kids is still with us..
Those are some crazy machines they had!
Memorials standing in this picture that were later destroyed by ignorance
Imagino o que estariam pensando os velhos senhores confederados.
Enjoyed watching it. However, why can't the damned logo be removed after the video has started ?
That's me with the flag
PLEASE RELOAD IN HIGHER QUALITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That doesn't look like Monument Ave. I live on Monument. That may be Broad St. Monument narrows, heading eastward, to Franklin St. which is only two lanes of traffic.
Good way to catch the flu..
racism runs deep in this city
Stupidity runs deep your brain!
