Yep.

That visual is universally associated with dictators. His best bet would be to tie into a Memorial or Veterans Day event.

France gets away with it because they need to remind everyone that the have a military every so often.

To be fair, it is the USMC's birthday and Veteran's Day weekend (Veteran's Day is on Sunday).

ETA: And the 100th anniversary of the end of WWI.

I'd rather we reserve national-level parades for major wartime victories.
