Every Day Should Be Remembrance Day!

A pinned poppy on your lapel represents the blood spilled by those who gave their lives (red); the black represents the mourning of those who did not return home; the green leaf represents the crops growing and future prosperity at war's end.  The leaf should be positioned at 11 o'clock, representing the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month -- the time that World War I formally ended.
