Quote:Try reading the article it explains why


It is like our Veterans day over there and we are participating in observance of it.



Maybe one of the UK Jag fans can help out with a better explanation of it.



I think you've already got it - Remembrance Sunday is like your Veterans Day.


Everyone wears a plastic poppy (they are sold to make money for a veterans charity) so this is just an extension of that.


The tradition goes back to the poppy fields of Flanders, where the First World War was fought.


This is coverage of Remembrance Sunday last year

Poppies were also used to mark the 100th anniversary of the start of ww1
