Poppy Day is celebrated in countries around the world. The American Legion brought National Poppy Day to the United States by asking Congress to designate the Friday before Memorial Day as National Poppy Day.
In this our 37th year of remembering and honoring the ultimate sacrifice our service members have made, we embrace the Poppy flower as the centerpiece of this ceremony’s new logo.
