More than 700 million people died during the conflict.

“The practice of honoring our war victims started after the Civil War,”

What was first known as Decorations Day began during the Civil War in the South, where most of the battlefields were. It’s an ancient practice.

Union General John Logan’s wife saw Southerners placing flowers on the graves of their dead and suggested to her husband that the practice should be emulated in the North and after the war it was.
