A Tuesday morning parade brought with it everything you might expect from a small-town Veterans’ Day celebration. There were children waving American flags — reaching, every few moments for candy flying off the military vehicles slow-rolling by. There were high school bands, Girl Scout troops and community leaders — standing together with hands over hearts while the local fair queen belted out the National Anthem. And then there were the veterans, the reason each along Center Street endured a crisp, chilly breeze for the better part of two hours on their day off. Ed Shumate was one of them. The retired pilot remembers flying a C-47 during World War II — how he carried an American flag with him on missions over China and Burma. He brought that flag with him Tuesday.
