Yuri Gagarin proudly parading with father and mother
In 1961 Yuri Gagarin (after his first spaceflight) proudly walked with his
father and mother through the streets in Moscow. Have I ever seen such a thing in the USA? Please see the picture on this site: www.servatius.blogspot.com

Please see the picture on this site: www.servatius.blogspot.com Most of the astronauts that received tickertape parades in New York City rode in the parades with at least their wife and sometimes their children too. Not sure if their parents were part of the parade. JD

IIRC, Gene Cernan and his parents participated in major events and parades in Bellwood, IL following Gemini IX (and possibly Apollo 17). -- Dave Michelson
