The 68th annual Armed Forces Day Parade starts at 10 a.m. Saturday, May 21 in Bremerton.

The 2016 Armed Forces Day Parade will follow the same route as it did last year, but the staging areas are in a new location.

Best viewing route is along Sixth Street, Park Avenue, Fourth Street, and Pacific Avenue where the parade ends at just beyond Eighth Street.

Come early to get the best seats.

Many people begin lining up at 7 a.m. Remember, there’s no vehicle traffic along the parade route beginning late Friday evening.
