Three years after the Civil War ended, the first Official Memorial Day (originally Decoration Day) took place on May 30, 1868, at Arlington National Cemetery. Major General John A. Logan made the day official.

    The Grand Army of the Republic (GAR), the head of an organization of Union veterans established Memorial Day (Decoration Day) as a time for the nation to decorate the graves of who have died in while serving in the US Military with flowers. That date was chosen because flowers blooms all over the country.

    On the Day, Memorial Day:

    On Memorial Day, it a federal holiday in the United States. People visit the local cemetery memorials on Memorial Day. Many volunteers place an American flag on graves of military personnel in national cemeteries deceased veterans. It is a powerful reminder of the ultimate sacrifice of these men and women made for their country. Then they attend a Memorial Day parade.
