The Battle of Cold Harbor in early June 1864 was fought over the same territory as the Battle of Gaines Mill in late June 1862. The first battle pitted the Army of Northern Virginia, led by Robert E. Lee and the Army of the Potomac led by General George B. McClellan. The Gaines's Mill battle saw Lee as the leader of the Confederate victory.In the 1864 Cold Harbor battle, it was again Lee vs US Grant and George Meade and their Army of the Potomac. In this conflict soldiers were disconcerted to find in the battle fields skeletons of the first battle of Gaines's Mill. As the 1864 battle unfolded past memories dissolved due to the heavy fighting in the new Cold Harbor. Battle casualties vary, however, on the conservative side, Grant lost 10,000 troops to Lee's losses of about 1,500 troops.

It's not just in England. People in France and Canada do it as well as in other countries. The reason is because in WWI, there was a huge battle in Flander's Fields; one of the bloodiest battles ever. Everything was destroyed in that battle, homes, buildings etc. Thousands of soldiers lost their lives. The only thing that survived the battle were poppies. Many of the soldiers who died were buried in poppy fields as well. To remember the brave soldiers who gave their lives, people in these and other countries wear poppies on Remembrance Day (Nov. 11th). There is a famous poem about the poppies, titled "In Flander's Fields" by John McCrae. You should look it up. It's really sad. :(
