Honoring Our Heroes On Memorial Day

by Cecilia Kleiner 05/30/2022

 

History of Memorial Day

Memorial Day, as Decoration Day gradually came to be known, originally honored only those lost while fighting in the Civil War. But during World War I the United States found itself embroiled in another major conflict, and the holiday evolved to commemorate American military personnel who died in all wars, including World War II, The Vietnam War, The Korean War and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Each year on Memorial Day a national moment of remembrance takes place at 3:00 p.m. local time.
