"Happy Memorial Day" just doesn't sound right. It seems like the opposite sentiment of what the day is about.
Gratitude sure, but "Happy"? People react differently to different things I guess.
Or maybe happy because the sacrifice gave you an extra day off to enjoy, which is the point of the sacrifice - for people to be able to enjoy their lives.
