MYFOXNY.COM - Two New York City Council members want the city to host a parade for Iraq War veterans along the Canyon of Heroes.
But so far, Vincent Ignizio and James Oddo say that the Pentagon is cool to the idea because military officials fear the ceremony could be viewed as a victory parade of sorts by America's enemies and could put troops who are still serving overseas in greater danger.
Mayor Michael Bloomberg said some kind of event to pay tribute to the troops would be great, but said the city needs to work with the Pentagon to make sure it is appropriate.
