On Memorial Day, many Americans visit cemeteries or memorials to honor those who have died. Many times an American flag is placed at the grave to show honor and respect. Another way to show respect for the millions of men and women who have given their lives for their country is to fly the American flag at half-staff, which means halfway to the top of the flagpole. The flag remains half-staff until noon to pay honor to fallen soldiers. When it is raised up at noon it symbolizes the those that are still living and fighting for our country. | On Memorial Day, many Americans visit cemeteries or memorials to honor those who have died.
