Memorial Day Coloring Sheet Printable: Union War Soldiers

This beautiful coloring sheet honors and celebrates Union War Soldiers who were overlooked for the founding of Memorial Day. The first national commemoration of Memorial Day is reported as May 30, 1868, However, African Americans began honoring fallen soldiers in May, 1865 in a commemoration that hasn’t always received credit.
