On this Veterans Day I am remembering all those who served, including my 88-year old father, who is a WWII vet. The most stirring symbol of wars may be the red poppy, which rose as a symbol of remembrance after the poem Flanders Field was published during WWI. My friend Mark, who lives in Australia, published this story today about the poppies that decorate Aussie war monuments on this day, which they call Remembrance Day: travel-wonders/2014/11/10/remembrance-day/#comment-31123
