Veterans Day

[L Verge]

Not to belabor the point, but here is an excellent history of how the "fake" poppies became a symbol of Armistice/Remembrance/Veterans Day: http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/...52348.html All before there was a WWII, Korea, Vietnam, and on and on...

Make sure you find a photo of the magnificent display of poppies around the Tower of London.

Eva, those of us of the Vietnam generation certainly remember "Where Have All The Flowers Gone?" It was almost the national anthem of the protest movements of the 1960s. Only I believe Pete Seeger, Peter, Paul, and Mary, and maybe the Kingston Trio were famous for it at that time.
