From a note from Chuck:

First parade I marched in was 1965 - was part of Mishmar Ha'Kavod led by David Sprung - carried a rifle.
Began as Mefaked of Mishmar Ha'Kavod in 1966 and held that position through 1972 (?)
1966 was the rain parade (last pic may be from '65)
1967 we marched on Riverside Drive.

From Chaim Fischgrund:

In 1965 I was not yet that active in Betar, I was just beginning to come to a few Peulot. I was a senior in the Yeshiva of Flatbush HS. One of the teachers was Ephraim Shach, son of the famous Rabbi Elazar Shach head of the Ponevezh Yeshiva. Ephraim was in the ETZEL (his life story is important in itself) and at the time a Shaliach in NY. He told me about the parade. I went as an observer and saw the Betar contingent, some of whom I knew. I paraded during the following few years. That year I also participated in what I believe was the first demonstration demanding the release of the Jews of the Soviet Union
