You never actually talked to a WWI soldier?

Nope. Not personally, anyway. I may have seen one at a talks at school... I have dim memories of *possibly* that, somewhere around 1983, but... I've never known one. My great grandfather was apparently a "doughboy", and his uniform jacket hung in my closet for a long time, but he died shortly before I was born.

Oddly enough I'd grown too large to wear that jacket at about age eleven.

I wonder if there are more surviving WWI airplanes then there are veterans. 101 probably makes it pretty close.
