symbol of ANZAC


Please tell me when and for what reason has the poppy become the symbol of ANZAC? The poppies grew at Flanders and are the symbol of the bloodshed that occurred there in WW1. The symbol of ANZAC is a solitary pine tree that was virtually demolished by the crossfire that occurred in its domain in 1915. It seems some people need a lesson or two on Australian history.
