Great War Showing for Memorial Day in Hawthorne, '23

The Royal Sussex returned to the Hawthorne Memorial Day parade on Monday, May 29, turning out one of our largest parade showings to date!  Our Lt. Colonel led a Colour Guard comprising both British and American soldiers, carrying the UK and US flags.  Our VAD contingent, our strongest turn-out ever, had two new faces in ranks, while we were also joined by a period civilian contingent to represent the home-front.  The regiment marched behind the 6th New Hampshire Volunteers Civil War unit, following a route of just over one mile through town.  On passing the reviewing stand in front of the Borough Hall, the Colour Guard saluted with an "Eyes Right."  We thank our newest member, Bethany S., for taking pictures and sharing them with us!
