Memorial Day (originally called Decoration Day in 1868) used to be observed on May 30 of every year until 1970. 1971 was the first year that Memorial Day was moved from its traditional date to the last Monday in May to give federal employees one of their three-day weekends. Since this date the significance of the holiday has been diminished from its original meaning of honoring all US military who died during all wars and military actions in which the United States has been involved to just being the first long weekend of "summer."

In 1918, just before the armistice of World War I took effect, a woman named Moina Michael read a poem written in 1915 by Canadian Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae titled "In Flanders Fields." Poppies are mentioned in this poem and so she decided to use and wear red poppies to honor those who had perished in war. Ms. Michael also wrote a poem in response. She chose red to represent the blood that was spilled. The custom soon spread to other countries. However, in the US this tradition applies mostly to Memorial Day and not Veterans Day.
