16 Gun Salute...
Last Australian WWI Veteran Dies at 106
"William Evan Allan enlisted in the Royal Australian Navy at the outbreak of the war when he was just 14. He served as a seaman on the HMAS Encounter from 1915 to 1918.
"With his passing, we have lost an entire generation who left Australia to defend our nation, the British Empire and other nations in the cause of freedom and democracy," Veteran Affairs Minister De-Anne Kelly said in a statement."
Here's to Billy Allen. Thanks for your service, sir, and save us a seat.
