National Poppy Day
May 27, 2022
National Poppy Day is Friday, May 27. Join in this national event by honoring our fallen and supporting our living heroes. Learn more at: https://www.legion.org/poppyday
The tradition of wearing a poppy dates back to 1920, when it became the memorial flower of
The American Legion Family. The American Legion Auxiliary has used poppies for many years to
raise awareness and support for our nation’s veterans, active-duty servicemembers and their families.
This year, The American Legion Family is continuing to bring attention to this symbolic flower
by calling upon all Americans to honor the fallen and support the living on National Poppy
Day®, May 27, 2022.
