That sentiment is technically correct but in point of fact both days are considered days when we remember both the fallen and those “ordinary vets” who survived military service. For some the biggest sacrifices may have been unrelated to wartime service. Plenty of people get killed in training and other military situations. I think any ceremony or simple gesture that remembers these sacrifices is appropriate on either day. Personally I think it’s great we have both Veterans Day and Memorial Day.
