Wait, I thought it was now called "Slaughtering of Native Americans Day"? :huh:

Indigenous Peoples Day.
Cool that Guzzis were in the Columbus Day parade!

You don't have to do all that to post photos here from Facebook. Just right click on the photo, select "copy image address" and paste it into the image "brackets" here. Simple.

I couldn't read who the riders were and what organization they represent. It looked perfect.

So next year they will be riding Indians and not Guzzis?

Hmmm. About that posting title. I learned a new word! I thought your "Corazzieri" was perhaps a transposition or misspelling of 'carrozzieri' which would be a body shop sheet panel worker. No, you are correct. The word derives from armor-dressed or armor-plated and refers specifically to the Presidential Guard, an elite division of the larger Carabinieri or national police. Thanks for the lesson.

Yep. Pretty cool. They've been designated a cavalry squadron since 1946, but have roots back to the 1500s.

Thanks Tom! Every time I watch this, it is simply amazing. I'll wager the people there remember that for the rest of their lives. Would have been quite a sight in person.
