Remember what it's for. Take a few minutes to visit your local Veterens cemetary and pay your respects.

Whats memorial day?



Originally a day to mourn our war dead. It's become just another day to go on a picnic...., or watch the Boob tube (television). Just one of many of our holiday's we are losing the meaning of.

Memorial Day is a day set aside for Americans to remember their war dead. It is one of those American holidays that has been made into an excuse for a three day weekend. The modern observance takes place on the last Monday in May. The traditional day of observance was May 30.

Wonder why someone needs a special day for remembering their dead of war, Many countries have lost alot more dead in wars than the US. :p
