A ticker-tape parade honoring war combat veterans who served in post-9/11 wars is coming to lower Manhattan this summer, according to the mayor’s office. Dubbed the “Homecoming of Heroes” and slated for July 6, the parade down the “Canyon of Heroes” from the Battery to City Hall formally recognizes more than 2. 9 million Americans who served in Iraq and Afghanistan following the September 11 terror attacks.
