6. Did you know that Memorial Day was first known as Decoration Day, for the practice of decorating graves with flowers, wreaths, and flags. Federal Law declared Memorial Day the official name in 1967.

7. What I would do on Memorial Day to show honor and respect would be to do a prayer to all the fallen ones that gave it all, and to those who bravely keep fighting and giving it all. This is a special day in which respect and honor are essential to our country. Finally, God bless America!
