Thousands turned out to enjoy festivities and a sprawling military parade in Washington, D.C., even as dismal weather forecasts and nationwide anti-Trump “No Kings” protests threatened to dampen the Army’s 250th birthday celebration.

The procession featured more than 6,000 soldiers, 128 Army tanks, aircraft flyovers, military bands, even robot dogs. Troops wore uniforms representing the Army’s history, including outfits from the Revolutionary War, Civil War, World War II, the Vietnam War and the Global War on Terror.

Some attendees exited the military parade marking the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army in Washington D.C. early, according to reports.
