My mom and I always get teary-eyed at the vets in the parades. I'll have to ask her about her memory of WWI vets. Her uncle was killed in WWII, but I bet there is some WWI history from our family she could tell me about too.
Very sad indeed. And so many died in World War 1, the whole thing is just almost unfathomable.
