Memorial Day began shortly after 1865 and was originally "Decoration Day" for remembering the Union fallen. As early as 1877, a prominent former Confederate veteran spoke at a Decoration Day ceremony and started the process whereby it became a Memorial to all of Americas fallen.

Its unbelievable how our returning vets are treated by some. Makes you wonder how they feel about the ones who gave their lives for them.

Good info Rick. I never knew that. Thanks
