The 2025-26 Remembrance Day jersey recognizes the 110th anniversary of the Second Battle of Ypres (April 22, 1915) and pays tribute to the poem written during that battle by Lieutenant-Colonel John McCrae, In Flanders Fields. McCrae was a Canadian poet, physician, artist, and soldier who served as a medical officer in the trenches during the Second Battle of Ypres in Belgium. McRae treated hundreds of wounded soldiers each day, many the result of deadly German chlorine attacks. On May 2nd, 1915, McRae witnessed a friend, fellow soldier lieutenant Alexis Helmer die instantly during a shelling attack. McRae conducted his burial service, reciting from memory, passages from the "order of burial of the dead. ¬Â The next day as he looked upon Alexis' makeshift grave marked by a simple wooden cross; wild poppies were beginning to bloom between the crosses marking many more graves. Unable to help any of those who had died, McRae penned the poem that would give these young men a voice forever.
