The end of World War One is treated as ancient history. There is one American veteran still alive.
I left Vietnam 51 years ago, over half way back to Armistice Day.

Yes indeed, when I was a kid there were several WW I vets in a town of 2000, and a ton of WW II vets. When my father died in 1999 his 82nd Airborne uniform was still hanging in the closet after half a dozen moves.
