The red poppy is a symbol of remembrance. After WWI, on the very fields of Flanders (northern France and Belgium) where so many soldiers had shed their blood, red poppies grew in abundance afterwards. The poppy is not just a symbol of remembrance for the ANZACs, but for all the Allied forces. Exclusive to the ANZACs is the "rising sun" emblem - the ANZACs wore the "Rising Sun" badge on the up-turned brim of a slouch hat, which was so shaped as to allow the soldier to hold his weapon in an upright position without it knocking into the hat. Rosemary is another symbol of remembrance, and has been since long before the ANZACs. It is sitll used today. The catafalque is a raised platform which symbolises the platform upon which a coffin would rest. ANZAC services often feature a catafalque, upon which wreaths of flowers may be laid at the closure of the service. Sometimes a remembrance stone takes the place of the catafalque.
