marching bands, no welcome home parade anywhere in civilian life. tomorrow st. louis, missouri changes that. they become the first city to say welcome home. it's all because of two friends who decided if nobody else was going to hold the nation's first big welcome home parade for the troops for the end of the iraq war they'd try to do it just as a couple of citizens. they met with the mayor, collected donations, started a facebook page and voila, a parade. floats are being built, marching bands are practicing their routines. the anheuser-busch clydesdales are being harnessed. the parade starts at noon tomorrow, downtown st. louis. now the founder and executive director of veterans of america, paul raycroft. good to see you. >> happy friday. >> are you going to be represented in st. louis? >> absolutely. we are excited to be involved. we have a two-tour iraq vet
