Decoration Day: The holiday originated after the American Civil War to commemorate the Union and Confederate soldiers who died in the Civil War. By the 20th century, Memorial Day had been extended to honor all Americans who died while in the military service.
First Official Observance: General John A. Logan of the Grand Army of the Republic called for a nationwide day of remembrance on May 30, 1868, and it was first widely observed on that date to honor those who died in the Civil War.

Traditions
Visiting Cemeteries and Memorials: People visit cemeteries and memorials to honor those who died in military service. Volunteers often place American flags on graves of military personnel in national cemeteries.
Parades: Cities and towns across the United States host Memorial Day parades, featuring marching bands, service members, and veterans' organizations.

Moment of Remembrance: A national moment of remembrance takes place at 3:00 PM local time.
Red Poppies: Inspired by the World War I poem "In Flanders Fields," red poppies are worn and placed on graves to honor the fallen.
