Memorial Day Activities
Memorial Day programs are held at each ABMC Cemetery. Each gravesite is decorated with the flag of the United States and that of the host country. Programs usually include participation by the U.S. Ambassador to the host country, a reading of the President's Memorial Day Proclamation, speakers, the presentation of the National Colors, wreath laying ceremonies, and military bands and units.
