THANK-YOU Mr. Frank Buckles for your service to the USA. RIP.

With his passing, history’s door on WW 1 is now closed.

At 110 I think the man earned his rest. Go home brave man and thank you for your service.

I hear Frank Buckles didn’t see any action during WW I. However, he was interned by the Japanese during WW II, and had some bitter memories of that.
