Memorial Day

Memorial Day is observed on the last Monday in May to honor and remember members of the U.S. armed forces who died while serving their country. It is a time for communities, families, and individuals to reflect on the sacrifices made by military personnel and to express gratitude for their service.

How to Observe and Honor Respectfully

• Distinguish Memorial Day from Veterans Day: Memorial Day honors those who died in military service; Veterans Day honors all who have served.

• If attending a parade or ceremony, follow the posted etiquette and show respect during moments of silence, the national anthem, and flag-related observances.

• Consider supporting veterans’ organizations or participating in volunteer activities that assist military families and survivors.

• Flags and Decorations: Flags are commonly flown at half-staff until noon and then raised to full staff for the remainder of the day. Families and communities place flags, flowers, or markers on graves to honor the fallen.

• Visiting Cemeteries: Individuals and families may visit cemeteries to place flowers or flags and to clean or decorate gravesites of loved ones.

• Moments of Silence: Observing a moment of silence at 3:00 p.m. local time is a national tradition encouraged to honor those who gave their lives.
