The upcoming military parade commemorating the U.S. Army's 250th birthday is positioned as a significant event, but it is largely viewed as a platform for President Trump to flaunt military power. The celebration coincides with Trump's own birthday, raising questions about the event's true purpose. While showcasing historical military might with older equipment, the parade seems to serve Trump's narrative of military strength while overlooking the current state of military modernization and the contributions of the Navy and Marine Corps.
The big military parade taking place along the National Mall is less about celebrating the U.S. Army's 250th birthday and more about providing a boost to President Trump's ego.
Trump's definition of a military celebration seems to focus more on showcasing might rather than honoring the historical significance of the Army's birthday.
