Some thoughts on Memorial Day...
Using the word "Happy" during Memorial Day isn't something we should be saying.
Memorial Day is supposed to be a day of somber remembrance for those we lost.
Veterans Day celebrates the veteran.
Memorial Day HONORS those we've lost.
There's a difference.

Since Memorial Day is a solemn day to remember the Fallen, the Wounded Warrior Project advises people to say: "Have a meaningful Memorial Day," not "Happy Memorial Day."

Black people started Memorial Day. In the wake of the 1865 confederate evacuation from South Carolina, the bodies of over 250 Union soldiers were left to rot in unburied coffins. Freed Black people buried these soldiers and on May 1, 1865, 10K mostly Black people showed up. Glad you asked.

For many veterans, Memorial Day is a time of reflection. It can be a dull ache. It can be a visceral pain. Please bear in mind that for so many veterans & Gold Star families, there is no Happy in Memorial Day.
To our veterans, I can only wish you some moments of peace as we remember your friends.— AltSpaceForce 🚀🇺🇲 (@altspaceforce.altgov.info) 2025-05-23T14:13:26.837Z
Trump cut staffing at the VA, and now Dallas vets are waiting months for care.
Surgeries are being delayed. Vets are being left without mental health care.
I’ve called for an investigation—because if you claim to support veterans, act like it.
