Last WW1 vet IN AMERICA.

Last time I recall, America wasn't the entire world. Besides, it's not like America did shit in WW1 anyway.

damn he lived a long time

Yes, that.

110 years old, that's really amazing.

Yeah when he was born the average death age was probably closer to half his age.

classy:disgust

You're a moron. Let's see less than a year after we entered a war that had been going on for 4 years it ended. Hmmmmmmm.

Also who cares if he left out America ther's only 3 others left. If you're not from the UK or Poland why are you getting your panties in a wad? You just hate America, so fuck off.

110.

I'll be lucky if i get to half that age...

110 years old. I can't imagine being that old. That's older than Baddog.

that has to be a troll post
