The only parade in the U.S. to honor NATO features over 100 parade units including U.S. and international bands, military units, community groups and floats representing every NATO Member Nation! Scotland alone is not a member nation- they are not independent and remain under the United Kingdom. However, the United Kingdom (consisting of Scotland, Ireland, North Ireland, England, and Wales) is a NATO member. Though this is not an SST event, we do have many members come out for this and thought to share!
