Poppy emblem spreads from Armistice to world stage

Elmo Scott Watson details how the red poppy became Armistice Day’s emblem born from Moina Michael, spreading from the United States to Europe and beyond. The piece notes its adoption by the American Legion in 1920, the international adoption, the “buddy poppies” fundraisers, and a Georgia memory tying Memorial Day to Civil War remembrances, plus a side account of political faction names like Hunkers and Barnburners.
