I'm not sure that Memorial Day celebrates the Revolutionary War.  More 
likely the 4th of the July.
Homeland Security would have thrown the Revolutionaries in Gitmo nowadays.

Memorial Day memorializes all veterans than gave their lives for this country, even the Revolutionary War. The British equivalent of Homeland Security not only threw those not loyal to King George in jail but also hanged them or executed them at firing squad. Most of the signers of the Declaration of Independence had their homes burned and properties taken by the Crown. Anybody caught giving aid and comfort to the Revolution was likely to have the same punishment dealt out to them.
