Memorial Day poppy flower display honors fallen veterans
Fox News
An installment has put hundreds of thousands of poppy flowers on exhibit to honor our fallen services members from all generations and to thank them.
Bird now works for USAA as senior vice president of military affairs. He says thousands visit the poppy display in Washington, D.C., every year. Since the first installment in 2018, around 40,000 people have viewed it. Bret Baier is the Chief Political Anchor of Fox News Channel, and the Anchor and Executive Editor of "Special Report with Bret Baier." He is the author of four presidential biographies, which tackle the critical issues of our times. His fifth biography, To Rescue the Constitution:George Washington and the Convention that Saved the American Experiment, will be published in 2023.
"Unlike Veterans Day, which is in November, we take Memorial Day to thank the men and women who gave their lives in combat so that we may enjoy the freedoms we enjoy," Bird said. "We want people to enjoy summer barbecues, but just take a moment and reflect on that and the incredible gift that we've been given."
