Memorial Day is to thank the veterans and people who died in the military. So when we stop for a moment of silence we show the people who fought for our country respect and we thank them for what they did. What did they do? They fought in the war for us they have did plenty things so Memorial Day is about respecting those who have died and and veterans, and people who are in the military for what they have done. Happy Memorial Day!

Write a story on the day i had a chance to act
PtichkaEL [24]
I have a brief story to tell of a day which I always remember and cherish during which I found out something very important about myself and my values in life. It happened when I was coming home from high school on my fisherman friends boat (we had to take a bus, then take a boat and then walk to get home). I was also a fisherman's son who also had worked on the fishing boat of my dad. But whereas my friend was in the general non-university program, I was in the university entrance program so I had aspirations for higher education. As we approached the float of my friend's house, I put down my briefcase with all my homework and jumped down onto the float with a line to help tie it up. Then when I looked up, my friend handed me my briefcase. This felt so good, that I was not forgetting my humble background and not acting superior but being what I was- a fisherman's son basically and primarily and secondarily a potential university student and that my friend appreciated my action.

Read this excerpt about Elizabeth Van Lew from The Dark Game.
Brrunno [24]

It states how Van Lew acted as an important leader and manager at a time when women were generally discouraged from taking on those roles.

It shows that Van Lew was dedicated to a cause outside of her family and worked hard for her beliefs.

<h3 /><h3>Who was Elizabeth Van Lew?</h3>

She was an American philanthropist who lived from 1818 to 1900, she fought for the abolition of slavery and assisted the Union Army as a spy during the American Civil War.

Therefore, Elizabeth Van Lew contributed to expand the role of women in society by being an honorable figure who fought for her beliefs regardless of the roles assigned to women at the time.
