Memorial Day: A National Day of Remembrance

The History Education Council of Hawaii salutes the men and women of America who sacrificed personal liberties and freedoms so that others across our nation could enjoy theirs. Memorial Day is our Day of Remembrance dedicated to those who are no longer with us. Across Hawaii the graves of our soldiers are decorated with flags, Hawaiian leis and other mementos. The picture above was taken by Jeffrey Bingham Mead at the National Cemetery of the Pacific in Honolulu on Memorial Day 2008.

We call your attention to this link on the history of Memorial Day, courtesy of the Department of Veterans Affairs.

The Public Broadcasting System (PBS) features this web link to the National Memorial Day Concert and other information about the holiday.
