Sorry for my ignorance but what is the significance of a poppy in the Prince of Wales' lapel.
The Daily Mail picture is old-Nelson Mandela is on it. Last edited by sthreats; 10-19-2007 at 01:22 PM. Reason: spelling |

Thanks for confirming this, the picture is old, though Nelson Mandela is still a member of the Order.
Also the Poppy is worn in the UK and other commonwealth Realms to remember the dead from conflict since the 1st World War, it is usually worn from c. 1st Nov. until Remembrance Day or Remembrance Sunday, depending on which is later.

![]() Charles points the way again! First with his invitation of the soldiers to Birkhall to honour the troops and to demonstrate against their treatment. Second with his constantly work for the environment. Well done Charles ! ![]()

David Lloyd George is at last getting the proper commemoration his leadership deserved
Our most radical PM | Comment | Guardian Unlimited Politics PRINCE Charles was last night praised for personally honouring Iraq veterans at his private Scottish residence, but questions were asked as to why the task had fallen to him rather than political and military leaders http://news.scotsman.com/scotland.cfm?id=1682032007 From the article - Captain Susan Duthie, 37, a bank worker from Perth, was one of six women who served in Iraq with the company. She described it as "a nice surprise". "Charles certainly takes an interest in what we are doing as he sent us messages and telegrams of good wishes when we were away," she said. "It is a good feeling to know there is someone so important backing you."
