On May 30 2022, we honor those who gave their lives in protection of the United States of America. Beginning with the Civil War, Americans, young and old, take this day to remember our fallen Heroes in many ways.

            Most proudly display the American flag, our token of a free country, to honor the fallen.

            Some visit Battlefields, where American soldiers fought and died, and Cemeteries’ place small American flags on every grave.

            Many attend Memorial Day parades where veterans march proudly, honoring their comrades.

            Families assemble for a moment of silence, before an outdoor gathering, paying tribute to a family member who did not return home.

            There are pictures on the walls of our homes, we look at each day, and they are there to remind us of their sacrifices.     

            Americans, will never forget those we honor today!
