"This Memorial Day, we thank the brave men and women who gave their lives for our nation. They will forever be in our hearts,"
“That Nation which respects and honors its dead, shall ever be respected and honored itself.”– Brevet Lieut.-Col. Edmund B. Whitman, 1868
Memorial Day, a federal holiday held the last Monday in May, is the nation's foremost annual day to mourn and honor its deceased service men and women.
Originally called Decoration Day, it was formalized by a "Memorial Day Order" issued by Grand Army of the Republic Commander-in-Chief John A. Logan in 1868.
The modern proclamition calls on Americans "to observe Memorial Day by praying, according to their individual religious faith, for permanent peace."
