Cadets March in Louisiana Fair Parade

2nd Lt. Tracy F. Jordan
Public Affairs Officer
Lake Charles Composite Squadron
Louisiana Wing

Cadets from the Louisiana Wing’s Lake Charles Composite Squadron served as the color guard Oct. 5 for the 92nd annual Beauregard Parish Fair Parade in DeRidder.

One of the most anticipated events in Beauregard Parish each year, the fair celebrates the area’s history of farm living, family and fellowship. The fair and parade made a robust return after being canceled last year in the aftermath of Hurricane Laura.

Cadet Chief Master Sgt. Wesley Felice and Cadet Tech. Sgt. Abby Rougeau marched with the U.S. and Louisiana flags, with Cadet Airmen 1st Class Allyssa Rougeau and Samantha Jordan serving as rifle guard. Cadets from both the Lake Charles and Leesville composite squadrons paraded behind them.
