well it is a very careful process but ill make it simple for you.

here it goes- lymph nodes filter out microorganisms and foreign materials that have been taken up by lymphocytes. when your body fights an infection, lymphocytes fill the lymph nodes. the lymph nodes become warm, reddened, and tender to the touch. after the invaders are destroyed, the redness, warmth, and tenderness in the lymph nodes goes away. it might be difficult to understand but thats the way our body fight any sorts of bumps, and which is why lymph nodes are very useful!!

lymphatic organs are organs of the immune system. These organs do varieties of functions such as the spleen, which destroys damaged cells from the body so when the body fights an infection, it will have the best cells used, another example is filter like organs such as tonsils, bacteria enters the mouth but is then killed by tonsils to prevent an infection, lastly, some organs produce blood cells such as the white blood cell which is produced by the bone marrow.

Lymphatic organs don't really fight infections, they just prepare or prevent infections, the white blood cells such as b-cells and t-cells actually fight infections.

What kind of cell helps the lymphatic system remember an infection so that it can fight the infection better the next time?

There are two types of cell that play roles in adaptive immunity. Memory T and memory B cells. These cells are produced in vast numbers when a person's immune system is activated, and these cells float around the blood and lymphatic system for months (and even years!) after the primary infection. When person is exposed to secondary infection, the immune system 'recognises' the pathogenic particles and has a heightened response to the infection.
