Agree (in a way) with what you are all saying, however, when the last veteran does pass away, it will be newsworthy , and don't think he will be allowed a quite funeral with his family due to the media, they will all be scrambling for details .. bet they have a profile on all 10 already .... maybe best if the Government does somehow honour him officially before it does turn into a more unofficial 'circus'
Hope it is reported with dignity and makes us all think again on this profound day.
