Chef Jim Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Wow, 110. That's incredible. My grandfather was a Doughboy and he's been dead for probably 40 years. Boy did he have one hell of a scrapbook. His pictures gave me nightmares.
Marv's Neighbor Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Considering all the recent problems at Arlington, I hope those who care to honor his grave can find it.
Chandler#81 Posted March 1, 2011 Author Posted March 1, 2011 This is quite meloncholy.. I recall very old video of Civil War Vets paraded in cars around the turn of LAST century- long since past. Now, all the WWI vets belong to the ages with WWII vets not far behind.. We've seen the passing. Tell your grandkids!
