Canton Celebrates Veteran's Day

Canton's veterans and future members of the armed service paraded through Main Street.

Canton and Cherokee County residents lined Canton's Main Street to observe a Veteran's Day Parade Saturday afternoon.

The Cherokee High School Air Force Junior ROTC was joined in the procession by the Teasly Air Raders Cadet Corps, whose motto is "Lead, follow or get out of the way."

The two units were joined by a World War II-era Jeep and a truck carrying Canton's veterans, who were saluted and applauded all along the route.
