Ninety-two years ago, a young, 16-year-old patriot headed off to the Great War. Now at the age of 109 he serves his country still. He survived WWI, being a POW in WWII, being a farmer and even survived testifying in front of a Senate committee at the age of 108.

Frank Woodruff Buckles is the last breath, the last soul and the very last American witness of World War One. Over the course of 109 years his life transformed from a common Corporal and farm boy into an international celebrity. His story is beyond price, it is insurmountable in value and is pivotal to American and Global History. It will be referenced for years to come.
