Memorial Day, 2003

Memorial Day, on which we pay tribute to those who died in our wars and other military conflicts, began as Decoration Day: the day to decorate the graves of fallen soldiers of the US Civil War. Here's a brief history of the holiday.

Today, we remember those who gave their lives for their fellow soldiers, for their communities, and for the nation.
