或者Remembrance Day. 也许大家见过代表这一天，纪念阵亡将士的symbol: A red poppy flower. 红罂粟花。这个symbol在欧美被普遍接受，是因为一战时的加拿大Lieutenant-Colonel John McCrae写的一首诗In Flanders Fields. Flanders Fields是在比利时的战场。McCrae自己是个医生，但是在一战停战前不幸在法国病故于肺炎。
In Flanders Fields
BY JOHN MCCRAE
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie,
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
