Grand Marshal’s 2024
Veterans Day Portland is committed to honoring the service and sacrifice of our nation’s veterans by organizing Portland, Oregon’s annual Veterans Day parade and a post-parade resource and vendor fair. As a C3 organization, we aim to foster a community of respect and support, providing veterans and their families with valuable resources and opportunities while celebrating their contributions to our country. We are dedicated to creating an inclusive and meaningful event that recognizes the bravery, dedication, and resilience of those who have served.

This year, we are proud to highlight our Grand Marshals-exceptional individuals who have either served our nation with honor in the military or have dedicated themselves to serving the veteran community. Their unwavering commitment to service, whether in uniform or through steadfast support of veterans, embodies the very mission of Veterans Day Portland. We invite you to learn more about these inspiring individuals and join us in celebrating their remarkable contributions.
