You are looking for a small cammo'd pill bottle, not in an Oak Tree. Watch for thorns!
According to the website www.redfridays.ca, the display of a Yellow Ribbon is 'a sign of loyalty to family, friends or loved ones away in the military, or to welcome them home'. In addition, although many think the military/yellow ribbon connection came from the 1973 hit song "Tie A Yellow Ribbon Round the Ole Oak Tree", it actually came from the classic 1949 John Wayne movie "She Wore A Yellow Ribbon" in which the female lead wore a yellow ribbon to express her undying love for a cavalry soldier. The ribbon was symbolic of the yellow stripe on the pant legs of the Cavalry uniform. More recently, the yellow ribbon has taken on new significance following the infamous 9/11 attacks and ensuing 'war on terrorism'. More information regarding the history and significance of the Yellow Ribbon Support Our Troops and Red Fridays activities can be found online.
