re: #21 Barbarian at the Gate

I read somewhere once that everyday 400 American World War II vets pass on. Soon it will be as rare to see a WWII vet as it was in the 1930’s -50’s to see a Civil War veteran. I think there is one World War I vet still alive in Britain.

My dad is a WW2 Pacific Navy vet, and he will celebrate his 91st birthday next month.
