It saddens me when the last of any generation passes on. People like that helped secure the world against tyranny and unjust leaders. On that note thank you to all who serve in the armed forces. May God keep and protect you.
 
Mine too is at half-mast in honor of the men and women who served in WWI and their families. The last serving person is quite a loss. And a prayer goes out to all the men and women currently serving and their families who toil here on the homefront alone.
 
My Grandfather was WW1 vet. He died many years ago. I have the flag from his casket still folded in a display case. It is sad to hear of the last of a generation passing.
 
My Grand dad served in the war to end all wars.He also passed back in 1959 and also encouraged me to serve it is sad to know that the last of an era has passed.

What some might not know is this Vet lied about his age to get into the army for WW I, served in France AND after fighting in the Philippines spent 39 months in a Japanese POW camp in WW II. He was a hero may he rest in peace.

They are ALL heroes no matter which country they belonged to. I just wish that more of their stories were documented! there is FAR too much history lost with them all!!
I am very interested in the true stories from the participants of WWI and WWII. I have so much reqpect for them all and feel that it the greatest loss for us all when they are gone.
God Bless them all and in my opinion, THEY ARE THE TRUE HEROES!!!
