Each year the Dutch armed forces celebrate veterans’ day. For the day, the Malieveld, the big plain in The Hague is turned into an exhibition ground. The veterans march through the city in a long parade. Groups of historic and modern planes and helicopters fly over the city where the Prime Minister and the King honer the Veterans. 60 veterans received a medal for their recent efforts.
Around 90,000 visitors stood along the route of the parade.

Most impressive are the numerous military bands walking in the Parade. There is even a detachment blowing bagpipes.
