Thank you for the link eyelikeart. A very interesting article. My maternal grandfather served in WWI. While working at the Omaha VAMC in 1982 I took care of WWI veteran that was 103. He was frail, but very alert. It was interesting to hear his stories. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends.

Thank you for your service Alfred Pugh, may you rest in peace.
