Yes indeed, the last man from 'The War to End All Wars' has gone.
:salute:
At the recent ANZAC day memorial the WWII veterans ranks were thinning, as were those from Korea, Malaya and the Indonesian 'Confrontation', while our Viet Nam veterans appeared to be missing more men than in previous years.

Time flies.

On this morning's news they said that when he was asked what the secret to living a long live was, he answered, "Keep breathing." :)

This documentary is due to be released in November of this year. It is worth a couple of minutes to view this. I am looking forward to the program.



They are trying to get 50000 views before Memorial Day. You need to view the whole thing to be counted. (Only 2 minutes.)



This is a trailer for a full-length feature documentary about a program to honor WWII vets.

I can't forget about war military cemeteries, when I my
childhood, I cycled in la Somme country side. I can't
forget about every year commemoration, when we were
singing "La Marseillaise" a terrible war and hate song.
Now I have my opinion memory must serve peace.
