In 2018 and 2019, 645,000 poppies graced the National Mall in Washington, D.C. in honor of those who have served and sacrificed since World War I. However, this year and last, due to Covid-19, the Poppy Honor Wall has gone virtual, encouraging people to post a poppy online at www.poppyinmemory.com to honor a military member or veteran over Memorial Day weekend, especially as many local parades and events are still postponed this year. John Bird, retired US Navy Vice Admiral and Senior Vice President of USAA, explains the history of Memorial Day, the significance of the poppy, and how people can engage with the Poppy Honor Wall.
