Remember the Difference 

Armed Forces Day

Honors those currently serving in the Armed Forces.

Veteran's Day 

Honors the living who once served in the Armed Forces.

Memorial Day

Honors those who died in service to our Nation.

The purpose of Memorial Day is to pay tribute to the memory of friends and family members who lost their lives while serving their country. It is typically a day of solemn reflection. While your intentions may be good, it could be considered insensitive to extend wishes for a happy day to someone who is currently mourning the loss of loved ones.
