Memorial Day became a federal holiday in 1971. Here is a look at how Americans have celebrated through the years while also honoring those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country.
Today is Memorial Day, and while many are excited to have a longer weekend for family time, camping, barbecuing, fishing, relaxing etc. ... we need to remember that Memorial Day is a day for pausing, and honoring our fallen veterans and military personnel who have laid down their lives for this country and for all of us.
Memorial Day is a day to remember those who have fallen serving for our country at war. It's also a time to show your appreciation and give thanks to those who have served and are serving. I'm always appreciative of their bravery and putting everything on the line for something bigger than themselves...
