The design of my pin contains a half wreath of red poppies surrounding the phrase “Honor Veterans,” with a purple heart and a green light replacing the “O”s in the word “honor. The poppies represent peace, hope, and remembrance. It is officially recognized as the flower that honors our veterans who have died serving our country. The stars that make up the remainder of the wreath are a symbol of the United States of America. The purple heart is a medal given to veterans who have been injured or killed in service, saving the lives of others. The color green represents peace, rest, refreshment, and security. A green light is a common symbol of moving forward and the action of turning a porch light green honors veterans and their families.
