All of those who died in America's early wars, such as the Revolutionary War or the Civil War. Memorial Day isn't just about those who fought in WWI or the Korean War (although they are important too) but the soldiers that helped get America on its feet early on.
Also, remember those who were drafted against their will for wars. I can't think of a sadder fate; die in a war you never wanted to be a part of in the first place. God Bless.
