It's very sad to see the last of these guys go. Dick Cole, the last living Raider, is currently 100 years old himself. I've also heard that Robert "Punchy" Powell, the 352nd FG ace, passed away today.

No sweat, Rami. I guess I noticed it before anyone else. Otherwise, they would have posted it.
Take care,
Bob
