1. A day on which those who died in active
military service are remembered traditionally observed on May 30 but now
officially observed on the last Monday in May.
2. Memorial Day started as an event to honor Union
soldiers, who had died during the American Civil War. It was inspired by the
way people in the Southern states honored their dead. After World War I, it was
extended to include all men and women, who died in any war or military action.
3. Monday, May 25
4. Parades, volunteer, highlight solder’s stories, collecting
for troops, discounts and free offers, etc.
6. More than 36 million people will travel
at least 50 miles from home this Memorial Day, It’s legally required to
observe a National Moment of Remembrance
7. I don’t really celebrate Memorial Day, but I will
watch the parade on TV and if I see any solders thank them for what they do for
everyone.
