Retired U.S. Navy Cpt. Randy Stapleford will be the 2024 Flagler County Veterans Day parade grand marshal.
Stapleford served over 31 years in the Navy. In 2021, Gov. Ron DeSantis appointed Stapleford as the Flagler County commissioner for the Florida Inland Navigation District, according to a press release from Veterans Day parade coordinator Bunnell Police Chief David Brannon.
The parade will be held at 10 a.m. on Nov. 11 in downtown Bunnell.
Stapleford was named Veteran of the Year in 2023. He has two master's degrees, one in national security and strategic studies and one in business management. A lifetime advocate for veterans, he is actively involved in organizations such as Disabled American Veterans, Vietnam Veterans of America, the American Legion, and the Military Officers Association of America, the press release said.
