Memorial Day in America was first held in the South in honor of both the soldiers of Confederate gray and Union blue.

Evidence? From the rest of what's written here it sounds like that is a baldfaced lie. Why call it "Confederate Memorial Day" if that's not what it was?

The linked article is fairly clear on the progression of events.
