I never forget this day because it was my grandmother's birthday. Years ago, it used to be called Decoration Day. She always said, "I was born on Decoration Day".
Today is also the 240th Birthday of the U.S. Army: June 14th: The Birthday of the U.S. Army - U.S. Army Center of Military History - (http://www.history.army.mil/html/faq/birth.html)
