Members of the Dragoons, Sons of Confederate Veterans Camp 1524 participated in the Prattville Independence Day parade on July 4th which ran from Court Street down Main Street downtown that morning starting at 9am. Quartermaster Myrick and compatriot Larry Spears rode in Bill's truck which displayed the camp's banner for the Independence Day event. 1st Lt Tyler Suttle was there at the parade with his little boy and met at the starting point before the parade rolled. Also joining the Dragoons were members of the Alabama Division Mechanized Cavalry including Larry McGowan who is also a member of the Dragoons. There were thousands of spectators lining the streets and the Dragoons' entry was warmly greeted especially the men riding the Harleys all along the parade route. Bill and Larry threw candy out to all the children spectating the parade. Great beginning to the Independence Day holiday.
