National Moment of Remembrance

The National Moment of Remembrance asks Americans wherever they are at 3 p.m. local time on Memorial Day to pause in an act of national unity.

The White House Commission on Remembrance was established by Congress in 2000, and encourages Americans to honor the sacrifices of our fallen and their families.

Please remember to observe one minute of silence at 3:00 p.m. local time on Memorial Day. Such an easy thing to do, and a wonderful way to teach our children what Memorial Day is really about.
