Letter: Four better ideas than a military parade

Instead of spending our limited public funds on a grand military parade that has recently been promoted, some reasonable alternatives should be:

A. Upgrading Veterans Administration medical services.

B. Increasing military pay for lower ranks.

C. Improving living conditions for military personnel.

D. Evaluating our military’s overseas presence. Eight hundred, of various sizes, seems a tad too many.
