For its 250th birthday, the Army put on the largest show of military might in the capital in more than three decades.

While the parade was ostensibly to honor the U.S. Army’s 250th birthday, and not Trump’s 79th, Vance hyped Trump’s remarks as “the main event” of the night.

President Donald Trump celebrated the "fighting spirit and unyielding force" of the American military in remarks following a parade in Washington, D.C. commemorating the 250th anniversary of the armed services that saw a grand showing of the military's power throughout the National Mall.
