It was moved to the last Monday in May by Congress in 1971. The day is now dedicated to remembering all fallen service members, with the National Moment of Remembrance at 3 p.m. local time. Red poppies symbolize those lost in war. While Memorial Day started to honor Union soldiers, some states observe separate Confederate Memorial Day. The U.S. flag is flown at half-staff from sunrise until noon, then raised to full staff until sunset. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
