Memorial Day in San Francisco, CA

For over 200 years, the city has honored this day with an annual ceremony in the Presidio.

Veterans and other VIP guests join a parade that leads eventually to the National Cemetery, where the formal ceremony begins with remarks by political leaders and retired soldiers.

The Pleasanton Community Band plays with the 91st Division Pipes and Drums to accompany the ceremony, which takes place on a national landmark that will feature guided tours through the grounds.
