Alrington Has a New Addition

The other day when I was reading the news, trying to update myself with that is all going on overseas where my boyfriends new "home" for the next several months will be, I turned to the local news and found an interesting fact: The last World World I Vet who was living, has died.

His name was Frank Buckles, and was buried within 50 yards of where the man he was under control, Gen. John Pershing.

    Arlington's a neat but weird place. It's so pretty but so sad and quiet.

    My Uncle is buried there. He was a Navy pilot who went to the Naval Academy. He died in action.
