If you work for a state agency is it appropriate to wear a small pin of your state flag on one of your coat lapels?

No, it is not inappropriate to wear a pin of your state flag on your coat lapels. I don't see why not.


Why do Aussies pin rosemary and poppies at Anzac day?

Rosemary and poppies are pinned to the lapel on ANZAC Day (and also Remembrance Day) because they symbolise remembrance. Rosemary is a universal symbol of peace, but the poppy has a special story to it.The story goes that, following one of the bloodiest battles of World War I, in the fields of Flanders in western Europe,when the ground was completely churned up and muddied, thousands of red poppies sprang up. The seeds had lain dormant in the soil and, after being aerated with the churning of the soil from the soldiers' boots and fertilised with their blood, the poppies grew abundantly, springing forth new life from death.Another reason poppies came to such prominence in association with World War I is because of how they were immortalised in that most famous poem of WWI, In Flanders Fields, written by John McCrae. This poem is spoken at memorial services everywhere on both ANZAC Day and Remembrance Day.

What is the red and green label pin celebrities are wearing?

The two-lobed red/pink flower with green leaf popping up on the lapels of celebrities and common citizens alike is a stylized poppy. The British Royal Legion runs an annual campaign in the days leading up to Remembrance Day (Armistice Day), also known as Veterans Day in the USA. This year (2011) there seems to be a more vibrant campaign probably owing to the fact that Remembrance day falls on the date of 11-11-11.
