Well, that's impossible to say, since we don't know how long any of them who are still alive are going to live. For all we know, they could all suddenly drop dead tomorrow. Or it could be as long as 50 years. It's impossible to know.

On June 30, 1973, Archie Turner was the last known person drafted into the US Army. Though he did not choose to join the Army, he chose to stay. He retired in 2004 as a Sergeant Major and senior military adviser in the Defense Logistics Agency. when they will die is impossible to predict .

The last combat WW-1 vet died last week, in Pirth, Austraila. He was 110 years old. Hope I am the Last living nam vet.

Being a Vietnam vet, I hope my eventual demise is a long way off.
