The 2014 Veterans Day Parade in New York City or America's Parade, the largest in the country, will start at 11:25 a.m. ET on Tuesday, Nov. 11. The Parade's opening ceremony will begin at 10 a.m. ET at the Eternal Light Flagstaff monument, and the Mayor of New York City will make a remark, and conclude with a wreath laying at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month. The Veterans Day Parade NYC 2014 live stream can be watched online beginning at noon at 3 p.m., and on television at FOX 5 (WNYW).

The theme for the 2014 Veterans Day Parade is "Land of the Free / Home of the Brave" in honor of the 200th Anniversary of the writing of the "Star-Spangled Banner," according to the event's website. The Parade honors all eras and branches of service, with the Marine Corps as this year's Featured Service Branch. In addition, the Parade is a Partner of the ongoing United States of America Vietnam War Commemoration.

America's Parade has a mission in raising awareness of the issues faced by Veterans, "especially our most recent generation of veterans of Iraq, Afghanistan, and other Post-9/11 operations," the organizers' website states.

"By telling their story on the nation's largest stage, the Parade reminds Americans everywhere of the service and sacrifice of those who have defended our freedoms, and mobilizes the public to support those organizations that are working tirelessly to serve their needs."
