Frank Buckles

[Hank]

First, my apology for including mention of an Army type on this Naval forum. I believe mention of this fellow here is pertinent as he was the last surviving veteran of the Kaiser's War in the United States. Mr. Buckles died at the venerable age of 110 years at his West Virginia home.

A commentary, written in his native state, on the man's life may be found here. :
