ALTAMONTE SPRINGS, FL – August 3, 2007 – James Dicks, President/CEO of PremiereTrade® LLC, was invited by the Sergeant Major of the U.S. Marine Corps, Sgt. Maj. Carlton W. Kent, to attend a traditional U.S. Marine Corps Evening Parade in honor of U.S. Representative Chet Edwards (D-TX), 17th Congressional District of Texas.

Congressman Edwards was honored for his support of the U.S. military through his continued support for an increase in the overall Veterans Affairs (VA) Budget to meet veterans’ health care needs as well as to address the needs of incoming veterans returning from wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. During a visit to Fort Hood, Texas, Congressman Edwards told the military audience, “I am deeply grateful to every veteran for making the world a safer place for my children and their generation. As the representative of over 42,000 Army soldiers at Ft. Hood, Texas, I have seen first-hand the sacrifices made by our servicemen and women and their families. There are no make up days for parents called to duty who missed the birth of their children, or first steps or high school graduation. There is no price that can be placed on a Gold Star mother's loss of her son or daughter in combat.”

After the parade, Dicks said he was thrilled to have been invited to such an honorable gathering, “The chance to be a part of one of an event like this, even as a spectator, is something that I will always remember. This extraordinary opportunity to show my appreciation to the nation’s military by attending this special event is a privilege I can never repay.”

Throughout the summer months, the Marines Corps hosts these traditional Evening Parades at the Marine Barracks in Washington D.C.
