Poppy Day

Poppy Day, also known as Remembrance Day or Armistice Day, is observed to honor military personnel who died in wars, especially World War I and II. It typically occurs on November 11th, marking the armistice that ended WWI. On this day, people wear red poppy flowers, inspired by the famous poem "In Flanders Fields," as a symbol of remembrance and respect. The poppy’s vibrant red reflects the bloodshed of soldiers and serves as a reminder of their sacrifice. The day often includes ceremonies, memorial services, and moments of silence to commemorate fallen service members worldwide.
