is an image I took November 11, 1998, 80th Anniversary
of Armistice Day. This man [Henry J. Mills] over 100 years
old, fought in France with the Rainbow Division.
[Note: On November 11, 1998, U.S. veterans Henry J. Mills
and and James G. Dunton were presented the insigna of
Chevalier of the Legion of Honor by France's ambassador,
François Bujon de l'Estang, in the name of French
President Jacques Chirac. Mills, 103 years old and a resident
of West Virginia, served in the famous Rainbow Division.
Dunton, 99 years old and a resident of Virginia, served
in the Army Ambulance Corps.]
