One story could be about a veteran who served in World War II. He might have faced many challenges on the battlefield but still held on to hope for peace. His story could include how he made friends with his comrades, and how they supported each other through the tough times.

Here's another. A nurse served in the military during the Korean War. She not only took care of the wounded soldiers but also became a source of moral support for them. She would write letters for those who couldn't to their families. Her selfless dedication during the war and her continued contribution to the veteran community after the war is a story worthy of sharing on Memorial Day.

You can start by reaching out to local community centers or schools. Offer to give a talk about Memorial Day and share some stories you know. For example, you could share the story of a local hero who sacrificed their life in war.

On Memorial Day 2018, there could have been a community that organized a parade dedicated to the fallen soldiers.

One Memorial Day story is about a small town that every year on Memorial Day, the local veterans' group would march through the main street. The children would line up, waving small American flags.
