🇺🇸 Memorial Day 2026 🇺🇸
Memorial Day, observed on the last Monday in May, is our nation’s foremost day to mourn and honor the brave service men and women who gave their lives in military service to the United States.
Originally known as Decoration Day, Memorial Day was officially established in 1868 through a proclamation issued by Grand Army of the Republic Commander-in-Chief John A. Logan. Today, Americans across the country continue this tradition of remembrance and gratitude.
At 3:00 p.m. local time on Memorial Day, the National Moment of Remembrance encourages everyone to pause for one minute to honor and remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. ❤️🤍💙
Whether you attend a ceremony, visit a memorial, spend time with loved ones, or simply take a quiet moment of reflection, Memorial Day reminds us to never forget the heroes who served our country with courage and honor.
