My DAD is the last WW1 American Legion veteran in Alabama. He was 107 last May... Several States have buried their last WW1 Veteran. He was too old for WW2. The ranks change about every day.

Your dad must be tough as a boot. He must be one of the few surviving WW I veterans anywhere. Bless him.

My wife became involved in geneaology research several years ago. And, to her surprise, she discovered that one of her forebearers had been the last surviving veteran of the Revolutionary War.

John Barham (1764-1865).
