Memorial Day is celebrated annually on the last Monday of May (Credit: .publicdomainpictures.net/CC0)

Memorial Day celebrations usually involve parades, flag ceremonies, and other formal public recognitions to honor the brave men and women of the American Armed Forces who have sacrificed their lives in the line of duty. This includes those in the US Army, Navy, Marine Corps, National Guard, Air Force, and the Coast Guard. However, the COVID-19 pandemic social distancing requirement is causing American cities and towns to cancel the beloved traditions and find new ways to honor their fallen heroes. Here are a few innovative festivities planned for the holiday, which will be observed on May 25, 2020.

      My birthday lands on Memorial day sometimes. It's usually a few days before, but whenever my birthday is on a Monday, its Memorial day. I was actually born on Memorial day too. Thank you veterans for your service!!!
