Default World War 1 Veterans, only 16 left!

Only 16 left in THE ENTIRE WORLD!

I had the honor today to report on two World War I veterans who are still alive. Both of the men I reported on were at the Massachusetts Statehouse and where honored during ceremonies.

Later, I got a call from the assisted living center where one of those soldiers lives. They were looking for this feature done by Walter Cronkite.

I will share the website with you, I don't know what station(s) in our area carried it, but it appears you can stream it. I don't have broadband so I can't attest to that fact.

106 Year old Russell Buchanan of Watertown, 110 Year old Antonio Pierro of Swampscott. Our World War I Veterans HEROS still alive and well!
