Veterans' Day

I may have told this story before ... but I am reminded today of a lingering memory. It must have been on the forth of July, 1945 or 46 that, during a parade in my Pennsylvania hometown, I seen to  recall seeing one or two Civil War veterans riding in a car or truck.

Can this be?

Assume that these gents were in their early teens when the war ended in 1865 (drummer boys?), this means that they would bet then in their early 90s when I saw them.

Wow ... that is mind bending!
