By the 20th century, Memorial Day had been extended to honor all Americans who died while in the military service. 1 It typically marks the start of the summer vacation season, while Labor Day marks its end.

 

      Memorial Day started as an event to honor Union soldiers, who had died during the American Civil War. It was inspired by the way people in the Southern states honored their dead. After World War I, it was extended to include all men and women, who died in any war or military action.
