Memorial Day is a federal holiday observed the last Monday of May. It originally honored the people killed in the American Civil War, but has become a day on which the American dead of all wars, and the dead generally, are remembered in special programs held in cemeteries, churches, and other public meeting places. The flying of the American flag is widespread.
There is a wide variety of material in your June Metro content to help mark the holiday to cover all aspects from parades and solemn ceremonies to cookout ads and weekend sales.
