What an extraordinary life Mr. Choules had to have lived. And from his later life pix, he seemed still a happy man, so it was a life well lived. RIP.

CLAUDE Stanley Choules, the last known combat veteran of World War I, has died in Perth

What a beautiful city to have spent so many years in.

My grandfather was a British Army veteran of World War I who died in the late 1950’s, several years before I was born. Oh, how much I would like to have known him.
