WWI Veterans

Very few World War I veterans are still alive. John Babcock is Canada's last one and he turned 109 today. The oldest veteran died just a few days ago in the UK. The complete list can be found here and as you can see, it is very short. They are last living witnesses to the horrors of WWI. Think about that for a moment.
