I love the use of flowers in ceremonies, do you know why there are poppies for this one?
During WW1 poppies were a common wildflower in the fields where the soldiers fought. Also, the red color was a symbol of blood. The holiday was established after WW1.
For This week’s C-Rations I included this link.Here it is again in case you missed it In Flander’s Field
Thanks for your thoughtfulness C.
