Memorial Day

Memorial Day

  1. Memorial day is the day that we in the United States celebrate to honor all of those who died fight in the military.
  2. Memorial day use to be celebrated on May 30th but now it is celebrated on the last Monday of May.
  3. One way to show our honor on Memorial Day is by writing a thank you letter overseas to some of the soldiers. Another way is by visiting a local veterans cemetery and showing your honor. Visit and help out in a local veteran’s hospital.
5.Some interestings about memorial day is that memorial day became a federal holiday in 1971. Nearly 620,000 soldiers died during the civil war.

6. Something i might do in memorial day is go to my uncles cemetery because he was a solider who died fighting in vietnam. So we always go visited him on memorial day, we’ve been doing it for 4 year straight.

7. I think memorial day is a great day because it’s a day that we show our support for those families who lost a loved one in war. The only thing is that i think we should have an actual day to honor the soldiers that are fighting for us today instead of just having holidays for soldiers who died already. I also like it because we get to visit my uncle every year.
