Whatever else war is – and it has been described in every way, from one slightly profane work to countless pages of histories and novels – it is a unique and memory-stirring experience for those who were most intimately involved as members of the armed forces. From the shared experiences and the quickened feeling of kinship have sprung many organizations of ex-servicemen.
Memorial Day is a US federal holiday observed annually on the last Monday of May to honor and remember the men and women who have died while serving in the U.S. military. It's a day of solemn reflection and remembrance, marked by various ceremonies and observances, including decorating graves, parades, and the National Moment of Remembrance.
A Blue Star Service Banner displayed in the window of a family home is a long tradition in America. The Banner lets others know that someone from this home is actively serving in the United States Armed Forces. As the “War Against Terrorism” continues, this Blue Star Service Banner reminds us of all that this war touches every neighborhood throughout our Land.
