Since World War I, poppies have been a symbol ot

The red poppy was used to symbolize the blood ot
those who died in service to their countries The idea
started in 1918 when American Moma

Fields," written by Canadian John
McCrae in 1915 during World War j
I She began wearing poppies in
memonam and sold them to othei.,,
using the proceeds to help veterans Today,
donations to veterans’ groups are often marked with a
token paper red poppy
In Flanders fields the poppies hlow
Betiveen the crosses, row on row.
-Lt Colonel John McCrae Canadian medical officer (1872-1918)
