SCRANTON -- Folks gathered in Lackawanna County for a ceremony commemorating our country's independence.

Local veterans representing every branch of the military marched at Nay Aug Park in Scranton.

The event featured guest speakers, a parade of flags, and live music by the Ringgold Pops Orchestra.

We talked with a Vietnam veteran who was proud to be a part of the festivities.

"It's great to have it on July Fourth because it lets everybody know that the fight is not over yet. We're still fighting, and now we're fighting ISIS, which should be eliminated," said Marvin Benson from Simpson.

About 100 people attended Monday morning's ceremony in Scranton.
