YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Memorial Day hearkens to the most divisive time in the nation's history, but brings Americans together in common cause — remembering the soldiers who died in combat serving their country. The History Guy remembers the origins of the American holiday, "Memorial Day."

This episode was originally published in May of 2017. Because of sound and lighting issues, we decided to remake the episode, with some new information added.

This is original content based on research by The History Guy. Images in the Public Domain are carefully selected and provide illustration. As images of actual events are sometimes not available, images of similar objects and events are used for illustration.

This episode covers a period of conflict. All events are portrayed in historical context and for educational purposes. No images or content are primarily intended to shock and disgust. Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it. Non censuram.
