Every year, USEUCOM participates in Memorial Day ceremonies at all 21 U.S. military cemeteries in Europe with color guards, troop formations, chaplains, military bands, buglers, general officer/flag officer speakers, firing details and flyovers. EUCOM has carried this tradition since 1996. Due to COVID-19, all public ceremonies were cancelled this year. However, a global pandemic doesn’t lessen USEUCOM’s commitment to honoring those who made the ultimate sacrifice in defense of the Nation.
