As the annual 4th of July parade time in Cornwall approaches, George Kane was thinking back to another parade that he took part in as a boy in Cornwall.  He sent in these black-and-white shots with a note, "these are either from  the Memorial Day or July 4th parades in Cornwall 1956.  I tend to think it's memorial day since Mr. Roy Barley is carrying a wreath and the cubs are standing near the Cornwall monument."
