Monday is Memorial Day, a chance to remember those who died while serving in the armed forces. This Monday marks the first year since the Iraq and Afghanistan wars began that no service members from Joint Base Lewis-McChord or with other local ties were killed in action since the last observance of the holiday.

But there are plenty of commemorations around the South Sound this weekend for those who have sacrificed their lives while wearing their country’s uniform. Events are listed chronologically.
