Veterans Day
Nov 11 is coming soon!
Today, I saw a man selling poppies stop a lady and asked if he could re-position her poppy? While doing so; he explained to the lady she should wear the poppy on their left side of her clothing; the red represents the blood of all those who gave their lives, the black represents the mourning of those who didn't have their loved ones return home, and the green leaf represents the grass and crops growing and future prosperity after the war destroyed so much. The leaf should be positioned at 11 o'clock to represent the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month, the time that World War One formally ended.
The Old Veteran was worried the younger generations wouldn't understand this and his generation wouldn't be around for much longer to teach them the history of the Poppies..
(copy and paste to share just like I did) 🌹 we must remember those from ALL WARS.
I copied this from someone else. Please do the same to pass this knowledge on to those who don't know the meaning.
Lest we forget...
