Memorial Day weekend is here. This weekend typically marks the start of the summer vacation season, but Memorial Day is much more than that.
Your family may get together for a barbeque, attend a parade, watch or go to the Indy 500, and get an extra day off of work. That sounds fun, but the purpose of Memorial Day is to honor those who fought and died while serving our country.
