    Memorial Day is a federal holiday in the United States for honoring and mourning the military personnel who 


    had died while serving in the United States Armed Forces. 




    The holiday is now observed on the last Monday of May, 


    having been observed on May 30 from 1868 to 1970. Wikipedia



    Be safe, everyone.

    half my relatives are American  ... are in Minnesota ( mainly Minneapolis )
     
    sadly, only 2 of the 7 adults I met at age 14 are still with us

     
    Matt ( MJ ) was Army .. he too has passed 
     
    his medals are in the White House  .., honouring his covert service

     
    every Veterans' Day, Memorial Day and July 4th .. 

    my heart breaks again at his loss but bursts anew with pride at his service
