Memorial Day is a U.S. federal holiday observed to honor military personnel who died while serving. Observances commonly include visiting cemeteries and memorials, flying the flag at half-staff until noon, and community parades and ceremonies that recognize the sacrifices of service members and their families.
The Facebook message reflects a common practice by organizations and community groups to combine remembrance with safety reminders on the holiday. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
