Another Pearl Harbor veteran was alive on 7 December for the commemoration : Earl "Chuck" Kohler aged 100.

He was Minister of Agriculture for the first time in 1953 ! I don’t think there are much ministers from the 50’s left worlwide. Reichelt could have been the last.

Tommy Tanaka, recipient of the Purple Heart for the wounds he sustained in Korea, has died on 25 December. His age was not specified. He served in the Korean War from November 1950 to October 1951, with the 24th division, 19th regiment.

Indeed, another veteran of the 100th bomb group is still alive : Russ Madsen, who turns 101 today.

I’ve never said that… It’s not about being stupid or intelligent, it’s about ideology.

Or it’s because 99% of the medias told us that he was a danger. Even Jospin admitted himself that JMLP wasn’t a danger.

Believe what you want, I’ve no reasons to lie about this.

Yes. Though I never voted for him. I’m old enough to have vote in the présidential elections in 2002 and 2007, but by that time I had left wing ideas.

I was talking about the term "war criminal" which seems to me exagerated.

He didn’t deny Holocaust, he said that it was a detail in the history of WW2, which isn’t the same thing. About the "assault" he cornered her into in a wall and yelled at her. He was big and yelling so I easily understand that she was frightened and crying, but that not makes him a woman beater. But talking about violence, why dont you talk about the fact that he, his wife and their children daughters miraculously escape to death when their appartment was bombed ? About the Algerian War, apparently and allegedly are the key words here.

I love the second one, hilarious.

He died at 87, since he was born in March 1937. Good choice of title for the obit !

Henri Ducruet, ex father in law of princess Stephanie of Monaco and grandfather of her first two children, has died at 89.

Álvaro Sabbo died on 22 December aged 98.
