1. parade

   The phrase battle array or array of battle is archaic and poetic; we now say in line or order of battle. The parade is for exhibition and oversight, and partial rehearsal of military manual and maneuvers. Array refers to a continuous arrangement of men, so that all may be seen or reviewed at once. This is practically impossible with the vast armies of our day. We say rather the disposition of troops, which expresses their location so as to sustain and support, though unable to see or readily communicate with each other. Compare DRESS.

   Synonyms:
   army, arrangement, array, battle array, collection, disposition, exhibition, line of battle, order, order of battle, show, sight

1. President Macron:

   Never since the end of the Second World War has Europe been so necessary. The construction of a Europe of defence, in connection with the Atlantic Alliance ... is a priority for France. It is the theme of this parade, acting together and strengthening our ability to act collectively is one of the challenges that the European Intervention Initiative, along with other key European projects, wants to address.

2. Firdausi:

   If thou desirest that the pure in heart should praise thee, lay aside anger; be not a man of many words; and parade not thy virtues in the face of others.

3. Shimon Peres:

   It should surprise no one that when some call the gay parade a parade of animals, that a 16-year-old girl is stabbed, those who incite against Israel's Arabs, should not be surprised that churches and mosques are torched and even a baby is burned in the dead of night.

4. John Soto:

   It's funny, when you go out to a parade ... they're in the background; they're nice and relaxed. As soon as the crowd picks up, they really show, we had one horse in particular, one of the lead horses, who was just the quietest thing. But whenever he knew it was time to go, he was all there -- heads up and pulling like a son of a gun!

5. Mark Montanaro:

   The current parade as it exists today has been passed down from generation to generation, it's very family oriented.
