7.Memorial is a great day because some soldiers don't even get buried when there are so many.It's great we get to appreciate so many soldiers that have passed away. I haven't had any family in the military but i can imagine how it can feel. There are some many ways to appreciate people, but i am glad there is day just for this. And it all started with the civil war, which is my favorite war.The Civil War devastated the United States, and shortly after its end, communities around the country started holding springtime memorials to the many soldiers who died during the conflict. People would gather together to pray and place flowers and flags on their graves. Honestly this a great day and it should be holiday.
