There are no more known American veterans of the Great War: Frank Buckles, sometime corporal in the United States Army, has passed away. My dad has told us how when he was a boy World War One veterans were grandparents; I have in my possession a picture of my great-grandfather (an artillery officer in that conflict) with my grandfather, dad & me when I was roughly a year old. And now there are none left at all.
Makes one wonder how long until the last WWII vet passes away—and that was practically yesterday!
