emorial Day was
called Decoration
Day when it started as a
day to honor the nation’s
Civil War dead by
decorating their graves.
After the Civil War,
people across America
started a tradition of
setting one day a year
aside to decorate the
graves of fallen soldiers.
On May 30, 1868,
General James Garfield
made a speech at
Arlington National
Cemetery. After the
speech, thousands of
people who came to
hear him decorated
the graves of more
than 20,000 Union and
a talk given to an audience

After World War I,
Decoration Day was
expanded to remember
those who had died in
all American wars.
