The 30th of May, is designated for the purpose of strewing with flowers, or otherwise decorating the graves of comrades who died in defense of their country during the late rebellion, and whose bodies now lie in almost every city, village, and hamlet churchyard in the land. In this observance no form of ceremony is prescribed, but posts and comrades will in their own way arrange such fitting services and testimonials of respect as circumstances may permit.

Thank you for the ping.
Our fallen warriors are our most cherished resource.
Without their sacrifice and bravery to look back on, our nation and our heritage would be but an unspoken notation in a history book.
May we never forget.
