On Memorial Day, the President or Vice President of the United States gives a speech and lays a wreath on the tombs. Members of the armed forces shoot a rifle salute in the air. Veterans and families come to lay their own wreaths and say prayers. There is a chance that one of the soldiers buried here is a father, son, brother or friend.
Some southern states continue to celebrate Memorial Day on various days, i.e. June 3rd in Louisiona and Tennessee called Confederate Memorial Day and on May 10th in North and South Carolina.
