WW1 veteran still alive at 104.
        
I read the news paper a few days ago and I found an article about Lloyd Brown, a veteran that served in WW1 and as of Novemeber 12th, was still alive. He served on the battleship USS New Hampshire during WW1.

It is estimated that living WW1 veterans in the US can only number up to 50 and can be as low as 30. In France the article said, there are only 6 remaining veterans of WW1, as one of 7 died two weeks before Novemeber 12th. The last Australian to serve in a war zone, died a week before that.

I was wondering recently, if any WW1 veterans were still alive, which made this article all the more interesting to me. So I thought I would share this with the rest of you guys.

I happened to find the article on CNN and it happens to be exactly what I read.

We owe it to them to preserve and honor their generation, as they aren't going to be around much longer.
