Does one say "happy memorial day"...?

Also, while for sure not always agreeing with US politics and military interventions, the guys actually going to the most dangerous places for love of not just their country, but also western values, deserve the utmost respect. Also from non US citizens. The willingness to defend those values and possibly give one's life for it is quite a crucial trait - that it doesn't always work out in the bigger scheme of things is not on the soldiers in the field. They are heroes (black sheep disregarded) in my book and this irrelevant mortal appreciates it.

Also, thanks to everyone's father, grandfather or other relative that helped freeing Europe.

Geeze I never thought about it.  I don't think I say Happy Memorial Day. Doesn't seem appropriate, but I could see people saying it just trying to be friendly.  I know I don't say happy Labor Day or Veterans Day so probably not.
