POPPY FACTS Did You Know?

Poppy Day as a memorial to American war dead and a tribute to disabled servicemen originated after the first World W'ar Soldiers returning from Europe in 1918 were familiar with the wild poppies which bloomed in the battlefields of France and Flanders. The American Legion Auxiliary says the first national Poppy Day in the United States was held in 1921.

The first memorial poppies distributed by The American Legion and American Legion Auxiliary following World War I were made of silk by French widows and war orphans. But poppy manufactur ing was soon turned over to disabled veterans in this country. Hospitalized U. S. veterans in Minnesota produced the first memorial poppies made in this country in 1922.
