A National Memorial Day concert was held yesterday, and today Americans are honoring fallen military heroes across the country. President Biden is set to observe the somber holiday with a visit to Arlington National Cemetery. The day is marked by dignified remembrance, with the president hosting a military breakfast at the White House. He will then travel to Arlington National Cemetery to lay a wreath at the tomb of the unknown soldier and deliver remarks at the Memorial Amphitheater, honoring troops who sacrificed for their country.
As the 80th anniversary of D-Day approaches, President Biden will be in northern France next week to remember the American and allied troops who died in the Normandy landing, emphasizing the importance of protecting democracy in Europe. This theme of protecting democracy has been central to the president's presidency, especially in an election year.
