I am one of those who have the need to know.
As a military wife, I should have known this, but I did not. Thank you for the history lesson. Much appreciated.

Thanks for sharing this piece of information about the poppy & WW1.
We have the biggest festival of lights known as Diwali tomorrow so it's busy time here.

I had never heard this explanation. I did notice there were
no veterans out selling poppies on the couple occasions I went to the store this month. I hope they are all staying safe and we can celebrate appropriately next Nov. 11th. Be safe.
