BBC - France’s oldest WW1 veteran dies

Mr de Cazenave’s death means the last French WWI veteran is now Lazare Ponticelli, also aged 110.

Btw, there’s a Wiki page listing the surviving veterans, by country, of WWI. I love Wiki. Including deaths of WWI veterans by year: 1999 (488) • 2000 (324) • 2001 (255) • 2002 (164) • 2003 (146) • 2004 (157) • 2005 (92) • 2006 (52) • 2007 (34) • 2008 (2). I love Wiki.
