Formerly known as Decoration Day, it commemorates U.S. soldiers who died while in the military service. First enacted to honor Union and Confederate soldiers following the American Civil War, it was extended after World War I to honor Americans who have died in all wars.
Now most people see it as the start of summer....what a shame
Bless all of the men and women who have served and are serving in our military.
