"I have never been able to think of the day as one of
mourning; I have never quite been able to feel that half-masted flags
were appropriate on Decoration Day. I have rather felt that the flag
should be at the peak, because those whose dying we commemorate rejoiced
in seeing it where their valor placed it. We honor them in a joyous,
thankful, triumphant commemoration of what they did."
~Benjamin Harrison
