A combined cohort of cadets from the nation’s two oldest state maritime colleges united to proudly march in the New York City Veterans Day Parade on November 11.

Cadets from both institutions, dressed sharply in service dress blue uniforms, marched along the route with a banner representing the United States Merchant Service and the Maritime Industry. In honor of the nation’s veterans that answered the call, the combined contingent of band members and honor guard were honored to give thanks to those who have served our nation in times of war and peace.
