As November rolls in, it becomes a month of remembrance for all those who have lost their lives in conflicts spanning the globe throughout history. To symbolize our thoughts for those lost in these conflicts, many people choose to wear a small red poppy. These poppies are sold as part of the Poppy Appeal, which raises funds for the Royal British Legion—an organization dedicated to aiding those affected by conflicts and supporting servicemen and women whose lives were forever changed by the wars they fought in.
