Memorial Day

  • from Sugar Land (Texas, United States)

Memorial Day

Memorial Day is a federal holiday in the United States for remembering the men and women who died while serving in the country’s armed forces. The holiday, which is celebrated every year on the last Monday of May, was formerly known as Decoration Day and originated after the American Civil War to commemorate the Union and Confederate soldiers who died in the war. By the 20th century, Memorial Day had been extended to honor all Americans who have died while in the military service

I was able to personally thank a few soldiers today, and I wanted to extend the “THANK YOU” to those in The Ring Finders directory who have served.

Stay Safe

 

Respectfully,

    Hear hear! My thanks as well! If it wasn’t for those who gave their lives for this country (and our friends in other countries), we wouldn’t be enjoying our “persuit of happiness”.
