1942, 1946: New York parades
Crowds of people filled the streets of New York to witness the city's "At War Parade" on June 13, 1942. It was a major display of solidarity for US troops who had entered World War II.
More than 10,000 soldiers with the 82nd Airborne Division participated alongside dozens of tanks and other military hardware.
1953: Eisenhower's inauguration
Remembered as the longest in American history, President Dwight Eisenhower's first inauguration parade featured 73 bands, 59 floats and plenty of military assets.
After waving to the cheering crowds, Eisenhower got a firsthand look at what was then considered one of the most devastating pieces of American artillery -- an 85-ton atomic cannon that could fire a shell 20 miles.
In 1957, the crowds once again returned to Washington for Eisenhower's second inauguration -- and so did the tanks.
About 750,000 people stood along the three-mile route as thousands of troops marched around the capital with hardware on display, including the 69-foot-long Redstone -- the first ballistic missile successfully fired by the US.
1961: Kennedy's inauguration
Since John F. Kennedy's inauguration took place in the middle of the Cold War, it wasn't surprising to see dozens of missiles paraded in front of the world, including the Nike Zeus -- the Army's first missile designed to intercept ballistic missiles.
Kennedy waved to marching soldiers and sailors aboard enormous Navy boats being towed down Pennsylvania Avenue. The boats resembled a vessel he commanded during World War II that was rammed by a Japanese destroyer.
