Following the trench warfare in the poppy fields of Flanders, Belgium during World War I, poppies have become a symbol of remembrance of soldiers who have died during wartime.
Remembrance Day or Poppy Day has been observed since the end of the First World War to remember armed forces members who have died in the line of duty. In most countries, Remembrance Day is observed on 11 November to recall the end of First World War hostilities.

Next to Essex Farm CWGC Cemetery to the north of Ypres is the John McCrae Site. Lieutenant-Colonel John McCrae, a Canadian Poet, Artist, Physician and Soldier wrote 'In Flanders Fields the Poppies Blow....' here in 1915 while working as a surgeon during the second battle of Ypres in the advanced dressing station here alongside the Yser Canal to the north of Ypres in Flanders, Belgium. These dugouts relaced the original earth dugouts in 1916 ( where he wrote his famous poem ) and have been preserved as a memorial to McCrae. The poem 'In Flanders Fieklds....' is on a bronze memorial stone nearby. McCrae died in 1918 and is buried in Wimereaux Cemetery at Boulogne, Pas de Calais in France.

Pictured: Somme WW1 Battlefield, July 1st-November 1916, France. Site of Lochnagar Crater at La Boiselle. February 2014
The Lochnagar Crater ( named after a nearby WW1 trench which was named by an officer after a mountain in Deeside near Balmoral in Scotland where many of the 7th Gordons, based in La Boiselle, were estate workers ) at La Boiselle, the largest crater on the Western Front, was created on the first day of the Somme offensive on 1st July 1916 at 7.28 in the moring by exploding a hugh mine of 60,000 Lbs of guncotton under the the German front line. The Crater was slowly being eroded until Richard Dunning purchased the crater in 1978 after reading about it in 'The Old Front Line' by John Masefield, so that it might be saved as a permanent memorial. Remains of both British and German Soldiers are still being found in the surrounding landscape and are buried in nearby cemeteries but marked at the Crater by crosses and Poppy Wreaths.

Service held at the Cenotaph to mark Armistice Day
Image of Lance Sergeant Stuart Laing, performing the Last Post and Reveille, at the Cenotaph in London today (11/11/2020) to mark Armistice Day. The bugle seen here being played was recovered from the battle of the Somme in 1915.
Events have been held across the country today to mark Armistice Day with Armed Forces personnel at home and abroad observing a two-minutes silence at the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month.
Major-General Christopher Ghika, General Officer Commanding London District, and his senior staff accompanied representatives of the Western Front Association for a small socially distanced ceremony at the Cenotaph to mark Armistice day, honouring all those who have made the ultimate sacrifice since the First World War.
During the Service, Lance Sergeant Stuart Laing performed the Last Post and Reveille on an instrument that had called men into battle in the First World War. The bugle used in the service was recovered from the mud and blood of the Somme in 1915.
The 11 November 2020 also marks the centenary of the unveiling of the Cenotaph. One hundred years ago on the 11 November 1920, thousands gathered in Whitehall to witness the unveiling of the Stone Cenotaph by King George V.© Crown Copyright / eyevine

Service held at the Cenotaph to mark Armistice Day
Image of Lance Sergeant Stuart Laing, who will perform the Last Post and Reveille at the Cenotaph in London today (11/11/2020) to mark Armistice Day.
The bugle he will use was recovered from the mud and blood of the Somme in 1915. Its shrill notes would have been used then to signal troops in the fug and heat of battle. Today troops are issued orders through the latest digital technology and bugles such as this one have an almost exclusively ceremonial role.
One hundred years ago thousands gathered in Whitehall to witness the unveiling of the Stone Cenotaph 100 years ago by King George V. Lance Sergeant Stuart Laing from the 1st Battalion Welsh Guards recreated the most poignant of moments at the exact time, in the exact place, that it occurred 100 years ago, by playing the Last Post to mark the start and the end of the silence on an instrument that had called men into battle in the First World War.
He said: 'This bugle was discovered on the Somme, beside the body of a Welsh Guards soldier who will have fought during the infamous Battle of the Somme. Its numbered 10 which means it is only the 10th ever produced for the regiment. Taking part today is massively important, not just to me but to everyone who enjoys the freedoms those soldiers sacrificed everything for. To be able to share a connection with this event is a huge honour.'

Its numbered 10 which means it is only the 10th ever produced for the regiment. Taking part today is massively important, not just to me but to everyone who enjoys the freedoms those soldiers sacrificed everything for. To be able to share a connection with this event is a huge honour.'

Service held at the Cenotaph to mark Armistice Day
Image of the bugle Lance Sergeant Stuart Laing will use to perform the Last Post and Reveille at the Cenotaph in London today (11/11/2020) to mark Armistice Day.
The bugle was recovered from the mud and blood of the Somme in 1915. Its shrill notes would have been used then to signal troops in the fug and heat of battle. Today troops are issued orders through the latest digital technology and bugles such as this one have an almost exclusively ceremonial role.
One hundred years ago thousands gathered in Whitehall to witness the unveiling of the Stone Cenotaph 100 years ago by King George V. Lance Sergeant Stuart Laing from the 1st Battalion Welsh Guards recreated the most poignant of moments at the exact time, in the exact place, that it occurred 100 years ago, by playing the Last Post to mark the start and the end of the silence on an instrument that had called men into battle in the First World War.
He said: 'This bugle was discovered on the Somme, beside the body of a Welsh Guards soldier who will have fought during the infamous Battle of the Somme. Its numbered 10 which means it is only the 10th ever produced for the regiment. Taking part today is massively important, not just to me but to everyone who enjoys the freedoms those soldiers sacrificed everything for. To be able to share a connection with this event is a huge honour.'

Following the trench warfare in the poppy fields of Flanders, Belgium during World War I, poppies have become a symbol of remembrance of soldiers who have died during wartime.
Remembrance Day or Poppy Day has been observed since the end of the First World War to remember armed forces members who have died in the line of duty. In most countries, Remembrance Day is observed on 11 November to recall the end of First World War hostilities.
