The last American World War I veteran died at 110 this weekend. In my lifetime (hopefully), the last WW2 veteran will likely pass away, and perhaps the last Korean and Vietnam veteran. How brave these men and women were, and how we don't honor those sacrifices nearly enough in this country. He was also captured by the Japanese during WW2, though in a civilian role.
At least another generation that has heard stories first hand lives on. What a remarkable life.
