I will be in the Tulsa, Okla., Veteran's Parade on Monday, Nov. 12. I am riding in a car owners' group in a convertible. I will have on a 100th-year celebration of Veterans Day T-shirt and my women's veteran group vest. My women's vet group will be in the same wave in two Army trucks. This is my second time in the car group; I have ridden in my women's vet group three times. I enjoy participating in the parade with my fellow veterans. Tulsa's parade is one of the largest.
I will have breakfast at the VFW hall, and after the parade have lunch at Carson-Wilson Post 1 and renew my membership in The American Legion.

About the author:
I served in the USAF Nurses Corps from 1965-1967 at Ellsworth AFB, S.D. I was a first lieutenant and became the OR and central supply supervisor after being there for 8 months. My only regret is that I did not make a career. Those were the best two years of my life. I made captain in the Reserve and had a chance to be in the Tulsa National Guard unit, but declined because of my personal life at that time. I joined the Legion in 1976. I am not active because of health reasons but keep my membership up to help support The American Legion.
