Memorial
Day is much more than a three-day weekend that marks the beginning of summer. To
many people, especially the nation's thousands of combat veterans, this day,
which has a history stretching back all the way to the Civil War, is an
important reminder of those who died in the service of their country. This site
by the History Channel presents the history of the holiday we now call Memorial
Day. http://www.historychannel.com/cgi-bin/frameit.cgi?p=http%3A//www.historychannel.com/
