World War I - Liberty Bond Parade

This parade down Main Street in Moscow, Idaho took place in late October 1918 and was sponsoring a Liberty Bond Drive. There were two sections (A & B) of soldiers stationed here during 1918. Abe Goff was in section A. The nurses (in the foreground) are carrying flags with stars showing the number of members of their family in military service. Civilians and vehicles lined the streets as American flags flew high. Some of the businesses visible in this photograph are Williamson's, Williamson's Cafe, Ford Authorized Sales and Service and the International Order of Odd Fellows (I.O.O.F.) lodge.
