In a post on his Truth Social platform Friday, President Donald Trump announced a parade on June 14 “to honor the United States Army’s 250th birthday.”
“I am proud to announce that we will be hosting a magnificent Parade to honor the United States Army’s 250th Birthday, on Saturday, June 14th, in Washington, D.C,” the president said in the post.

The Army anniversary falls on the same day as Trump’s 79th birthday, which is June 14.
Earlier this month, the Associated Press reported that the plans include over 6,600 soldiers, at least 150 vehicles, 50 helicopters, seven bands, and possibly a few thousand civilians.
The president’s Truth Social post sparked backlash on social media, with many saying the event would be a waste of taxpayers’ money.
