Military parade commemorating the U.S. Army to fall on Trump's birthday

The White House has confirmed that it will hold a military parade to mark the 250th anniversary of the founding of the U.S. Army on June 14, which fell on the same day as President Donald Trump's birthday.

An Army spokesman said a "day festival" will be held at the National Mall in Washington, D.C., adding that the event will have 6,600 soldiers, 150 cars and 50 aircraft.

Trump floated the military parade for the first time in his first semester, but he canceled the idea after the report said it was about $90 million (£71 million).

Earlier on Friday, Trump announced plans to rename Veterans Day (known in the UK as an anniversary) as "World War I Victory Day" to celebrate the U.S. contribution to the conflict.

The Army said plans for military parades are being "actively underway" and it is exploring "to make the celebration bigger options and conduct more capabilities demonstrations, additional equipment displays, and more engagement with the community." Trump turned 79 that day.

He first proposed a military parade for Veterans Day in 2018.

He said he hopes the Bastille Day parade of the United States "top" France, where he visited Paris in 2017.

He said the idea of ​​local politicians asking for "ridiculously high" prices was abandoned.

Meanwhile, in addition to renaming Veterans Day, Trump also said he wanted to name Ve Day "World War II Victory Day" on May 8.

The announcement was not accompanied by an executive order, and it is unclear whether he intends to become a federal holiday on May 8 - which is power in the U.S. Congress.

The end of World War I in 1918 and Germany surrendered to the Allies in 1945 respectively.

"Many of our allies and friends celebrated on May 8 as Victory Day, but in World War II we were even better than we had won so far," Trump said in a late-night post.

"We won two wars and no one is close to us in terms of strength, heroism or military glory, but we never celebrate anything." "That's because we no longer have leaders and know what to do! So we will start celebrating our victory again!"

Later Friday, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt appeared to deny the name of reporting Veterans Day would write on X: "We will always commemorate Veterans Day and we should commemorate the victory of World War II and World War II!"

One-day celebrations have been held this year in Britain, France, Canada and the rest of the world since World War II, in 80 years since World War II, officially ending Europe, and Germany surrendered unconditionally shortly after Berlin fell to Soviet troops.

Russia commemorates this occasion as the end of the so-called "great patriotic war". It is one of the most important holidays in the country and is marked by a mass travel.

About 27 million Soviet citizens died during the war, which began in 1939 when Germany and the Soviets invaded Poland.

According to statistics released online by the US World War II Museum in New Orleans, about 418,500 Americans were killed in conflicting European and Pacific theaters. Of the total, about 416,000 were military casualties.

There is no day in American history. After the conflict ended in Europe, the country still fought against Japan on the Pacific Front.

Veterans Day, known as the anniversary in the United Kingdom, was previously known as the Armistice Day in the United States, to commemorate the end of the battle in Europe on November 11, 1918.

After World War II and the Korean War, it was renamed to commemorate all American veterans. Memorial Day is always on the last Monday of May to pay tribute to Americans who were killed in battle.
