112 year old Richard Overton was the oldest living WW2 veteran......he stated that the key to his long life was smoking cigars and drinking whiskey. :)

Thank you for your service Richard and may you RIP.

My father was in Normandy .. R.I.P. Richard Overton. He lived a long life - hope it was a good life.
 

This gets me thinking of a former neighbor who was at Pearl Harbor. He moved to another part of the neighborhood, but I have not seen him around in years. Have no way of knowing if he is still around, or in a nursing home or something.
