On Monday throughout the nation, Memorial Day will be observed. Unlike Veterans Day in November which honors all who have served in the armed forces, this day is specifically to honor those service men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice – They gave their lives while protecting our freedom. In their honor, parades and memorial services remind us of all we owe to them. The practice of honoring those who lost their lives while serving their country can be traced back to the Civil War Days. In 1866 a group of women gathered in Columbus, Miss., to place flowers on the graves of the Confederate soldiers who lost their lives in the Civil War. After completing their task, they noticed that the graves of the Union soldiers, buried here far from home did not have any flowers or other plantings on them. Some of these women who had decorated the Confederate graves were mothers. They realized that if their sons were buried so far from home, they would appreciate someone remembering them. The women took some of the flowers and began to place them on the Union soldiers’ graves. This act of kindness by these women who were still grieving their own
losses was the first recorded act of decorating the graves of soldiers. The holiday that we celebrate as Memorial Day was first known as Decoration Day for it was the time when families and friends of soldiers who were lost in the Civil War, placed flowers and American Flags on their graves. The holiday became official in 1868 when President Andrew Johnson
“
As there was still some animosity between the north and south, placing flowers on all graves was to show unity of the nation in this still troubled time following the Civil War.”
proclaimed Decoration Day to be celebrated on May 30 each year. In 1868 flowers were placed on the graves of all soldiers, both Union and Confederate, at Arlington National Cemetery in Arlington, Va. As there was still some animosity between the north and
south, placing flowers on all graves was to show unity of the nation in this still troubled time following the Civil War and the assassination of President Lincoln. Over the years the practice of decorating graves of fallen soldiers began to spread throughout the country and many states claimed to be the one to start the tradition of honoring these soldiers. One hundred years later, President Lyndon Johnson for no known reason, officially declared New York to be the official birthplace of the holiday in spite of other states claiming to be the first. Today throughout the nation at both military and general cemeteries, the last weekend of May sees flowers and American Flags decorating graves. While first celebrated as the day to honor those who lost their lives during the Civil War, it has become the holiday to honor those who lost lives in all wars that the United States has fought. Each year on Memorial Day, at Arlington National Cemetery, the president of the United States, or on some occasions the vicepresident, places a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknowns. For many years that tomb was known as the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier but today it represents not only
