Thank you, Frank, and Thank you to all the 4.7 million Americans who served in WW1, now all gone.

Buckles should be buried in Arlington.

I agree. Seems he will be, too.

Details for services and arrangements will be announced later this week, but DeJonge said Buckles' daughter, Susannah Flanagan, is planning for burial in Arlington National Cemetery. In 2008, friends persuaded the federal government to make an exception to its rules and allow his burial there.
