John McCrae was a military doctor with a strong artistic side. His poem "
In Flanders Fields" remains a stirring symbol of World War I and remembrance. John McCrae wrote "In Flanders Fields" in the trenches in 1915 during the Second Battle of Ypres when a close friend of his was killed, one of 6000 Canadian casualties in just 48 hours.
