Memorial Day

So for those out there don't know what day is today it is Memorial Day. Memorial Day is a federal holiday observed annually in the United States on the last Monday of May. Memorial Day is a day of remembering the men and women who died while serving in the United States Armed Forces. Formerly known as Decoration Day, it originated after the American Civil War to commemorate the Union soldiers who died in the Civil War. By the 20th century Memorial Day had been extended to honor all Americans who have died in all wars.
My grandfather was working during WWII and my father was station in an army base during the Vietnam War and I call them my hero's even if they didn't fight they helped out a lot with other stuff to make our lives even better but others as well.
What about you? Do you have a love ones in the military? Do you celebrate Memorial Day with your friends or family?
Please help me on my quest if you can:
