5. Learn Your Family’s Military History: Discover any military connections within your family and share their stories1.

6. Fly the Flag: Display the American flag at your home or business, especially on military holidays like Memorial Day. The flag is traditionally flown at half-staff from dawn until noon1.

7. Participate in Memorial Events: Attend or participate in local parades, services, and other events dedicated to remembering the fallen2.

8. Support Gold Star Families: Recognize and support the families of those who have died in service. They carry on the legacy of their loved ones2.
