The U.S. Army announced on Monday that initial evaluations show no noticeable damage to Washington, D.C.’s streets following Saturday’s military parade, which celebrated the Army’s 250th anniversary.
The celebration marked the first time in decades that tanks rolled through the nation’s capital, in a tribute to the Army’s founding in 1775. Ahead of the parade, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser and other city officials raised concerns regarding the effect the 70-ton tanks would have on roads. As part of the $45 million parade, approximately $16 million was allocated for road repairs.
