The real meaning of Memorial Day

Memorial Day, originally called Decoration Day, is a day of remembrance for those who have died in our nation's service.

Here’s a quick reminder about our "National Moment of Remembrance". Today at 3 pm local time all Americans are asked "To voluntarily and informally observe in their own way a Moment of remembrance and respect, pausing from whatever they are doing for a moment of silence or listening to 'Taps."

Be sure to thank a Veteran today and everyday for their service and sacrifice!
