The story behind Memorial Day
Memorial Day, on the last Monday of May, honors the members of the U.S. armed forces who died in military service. It began after the Civil War as Decoration Day, when families and communities placed flowers on soldiers' graves; it became a federal holiday under its current name in 1971.
Flags fly at half-staff until noon, and many people visit cemeteries and memorials before the long weekend turns to parades and gatherings. It is also the unofficial start of summer in the United States.
