The last WWI combat veteran has died. There is only one non-combat veteran left.

That's just what the real last combat veteran wants us to think. "Only one more target left, now..."

Which means the war has passed out of living memory. And WWII is close behind.

Time marches on, but it still makes me sad.

And the band plays "Waltzing Matilda"
And the old men still answer the call
But year after year,
Their numbers get fewer
Someday no-one will march there at all.
