概要
 On November 11, 1918, World War I ended at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month. American forces were decisive in helping the Allies finally win the war that had raged for more than four brutal years. But it came at a price. Well over 100,000 Americans died in the war and another 200,000 were wounded. In all, more than 4.7 million Americans served in the war, including nearly three million who went to Europe.

On February 27, 2011, America's last World War I veteran passed away. Frank Buckles was 110 years old. Four years before that, we visited with Mr. Buckles to learn his story.

In this special edition of Veterans Chronicles, you'll learn about the determination of Mr. Buckles to join the Army despite not being old enough, the reaction in Europe when the Americans arrived and when the war ended, how he ended up in a Japanese prison camp for more than three years as a private citizen during World War II and much more.

Don't miss this special feature on America's last World War I veteran.
