Since the girls are napping... let's talk about those WWI veterans.
... ok, well, Maeve is not napping yet, but since she isn't screaming too loudly, I wanted to produce an update on this post from last December.
Back then, I found out there were only 51 surviving veterans from World War I. I just checked the list again today, and now there are only 39.
Why isn't this being covered in the press? We're seeing an end to a historic group of people. I would think this would be as good as time as any to have tributes and remembrances about this time and era.
