The USA celebrates its veterans on Memorial Day (the last Monday in May) and Veterans' Day, traditionally November 11th.
How do you Americans celebrate Memorial Day, which is tomorrow (where I am sitting)? Those of you in other countries who have days to honor their servicemen and women, what are those days called, when are they, and how do you and yours remember and celebrate?
My father's grave will have an American flag waving on it, as he was in the Army during WWII. Thank you, Dad, and ALL the men and women, past, present, and future, who serve in our Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, Coast Guard, National Guard. We salute YOU.
