Army anniversary parade on Trump's birthday could cost up to $45 million

A military parade to mark the Army's anniversary next month — coinciding with President Trump's birthday — is estimated to cost between $25 million and $45 million, an Army spokesperson told CBS News.

The parade in Washington, D.C., is expected to include over 100 vehicles and thousands of soldiers who will be housed in federal buildings. It could also involve 50 helicopters, prompting "extensive coordination" with the Federal Aviation Administration, the spokesperson said.

The event will take place as part of the Army's 250th anniversary celebrations on June 14 — the same day as Mr. Trump's 79th birthday.
