I am a member of an AMVETS post and we have a monthly meeting at the post and a second meeting at a senior housing facility. We call it our Southern Command as it is about 8 miles south of the main post. We have about 35 vets and widows at our meetings, most from WWII, a few from Korea. They are dying at about 2 every 3 months. More move in but our WWII vets I read are going at 10,000 a day! We get to know these guys and then there gone. Sad. These people are very thankful that they are remembered. :USA:
