1st Place:
Antique Vehicles
Here comes WW II and Korean War veteran Ken Nather driving his 1942 U.S. Army Jeep, which has a 30 Caliber Machine Gun and a Rocket Launcher.
Riding with him is Capt. Rich Buckley. Rich was a Marine Jet Fighter pilot. He flew 122 missions in F4B Phantoms in Viet Nam. He's a long-time Livermore resident and now owns Rich Buckley Realty.
The machine gunner is Ken's grandson Austin Evernham. I remember when Austin was just a tyke, riding in the parade with his grandpa many years ago.
