Dark red is the color of blood.
Red is the of the badge for courage for that blood, and the color of the poppies.
Orange is the color of your gun shooting.
Brown in the color of the mud that is everywhere and even on you, the trench you dug, your campaign hat, and the land you charged on.
Yellow in the sun that one of the two final sights.
Green in the color of your helmet.
Olive is the color of your tench coat.
Blue in the color of the skies that is your final sight.
Dark blue is the color of your dress uniform, all nice and clean.
Purple is the color of the heart for your suffering.

Thanks for seeing my mistakes

Really interesting. Some of the "you"s should have been "your"s, but all in all, it's good. I keep thinking the title should be something with the word "spectrum"... the inclusion of poppies is great.
