I was fortunate to know the last officer veteran from WWI. He died 2-3 years ago at age 108.

I bet he isn’t the last WWI vet who still votes.

Here's a salute to this esteemed veteran of WW I.

Ross Perot, former U.S. Presidential candidate, took the cause to the White House. In less than two weeks, he had succeeded in securing an internment for Frank Buckles at Arlington National Cemetery.

Chalk one up for good old Ross Perot!!

Perot contacted Ken Buckles personally with the good news. "This is the right thing to do. This needs to happen," Perot said. This marks only the second time in history this exemption has been made, the first was for the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.

Not true, thanks to that scumbag Slick Willie.

Frank Buckles apparently doesn't intend to take the offer any time soon. At 107, he still does 50 sit ups a day and lifts weights three times a week. He lives with his daughter in Charlestown, West Virginia. He served in the US Army in World War One, was a prisoner of War at Los Banos internment camp in World War Two.

Wow!

Looks like Ross Perot was all ears!
