What are your plans for Memorial Day?
Anyone have any cool plans? Barbecue and beer? I think most of the military installations have a parade.

Here is a little history of Memorial Day from Wikipedia.org.

Quote:
It was formerly known as Decoration Day. This holiday commemorates U.S. men and women who died in military service for their country. It began first to honor Union soldiers who died during the American Civil War. After World War I, it expanded to include those who died in any war or military action. Some Americans use Memorial Day weekend to also honor family members who have passed away. Church services on the Sunday prior to Memorial Day may include a reading of the names of members who have died during the previous 12 months.

Is it me or is Memorial Day just not being advertised enough over here in Korea?

They are doing a few things but i feel that it is not being pushed enough over here as it is in the states? May just be me but.....
