Then camera films spectators from a vehicle driving along the streets. A particularly large number of spectators surround the Old Executive Office Building. Many hold small American flags. But there is no cheering or merrymaking, as such, because everyone is waiting for the parade and related events to begin. The bulk of spectators are women. Several uniformed soldiers are seen, and some children. Crowds around the entrance to the White House.
