Memorial Day was officially proclaimed on 5 May 1868 by General John Logan, national
commander of the Grand Army of the Republic, in his General Order No. 11, and was first observed on 30 May 1868, when flowers were
placed on the graves of Union and Confederate soldiers at
Arlington National Cemetery.

“…we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow -- this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. “
Thursday, November 19, 1863 Gettysburg, Pennsylvania

“…that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.”
President Abraham Lincoln
