    Poppy wreaths lie on the U.K. memorial during the Act of Remembrance ceremony in Memorial Gardens at Camp Butmir, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Nov. 11, 2014. The poppy is an enduring symbol of Remembrance Day in the United Kingdom because of poppy fields that grew on World War I battlefields in France and Belgium after the declaration of peace.
