    		He was the youngest of the surviving veterans of the Great War - and I cried buckets watching that ceremony at the Cenotaph.

    		Well that is true Sissie - hi by the way- and yes it was very sad. I have been reading a book called the First day of the Somme, but this isn't what I was thinking about. He is absolutely unique in quite another way which the article will reveal......

    		Ah mibby, I think I may have it now.

    He is the only living survivor of both world wars.
