Crowds fill the streets of Buffalo, New York, in 1919 as returning World War I soldiers march through the city. Businesses and banks along the route are wrapped in American flags, and signs welcoming the troops home hang above the sidewalks. Spectators climb onto rooftops, streetcars, and automobiles, turning the parade into a citywide event. Scenes like this were common after the war, as communities paused to mark the end of the fighting and publicly recognize the men who had served overseas.
