Who are the highest-ranking WWII officers who are still alive? Any divisional or brigade commanders? It might be hard to find a lot of them though - some really high-ranking Chinese generals from WWII died in really recent years (but they didn't even get Wikipedia articles until they died)

https://www.ssa.gov/oact/STATS/table4c6.html If you look at the actuarial life expectancy for 98.5 year olds, it's roughly 2.26 years. He's already at most of his way to the mark of 2.26 years after the beginning of hospice care....

Maybe that's more progression from "no longer awake every day", who knows. But he'll make it through this year..

Fuck, he was one of the few I met (others I met [briefly]: Jimmy Carter, Sheldon Glashow, John Mather, ) ==== I heard Watson was "not doing well" and "sometimes lucid"....

Well, William P. Gerberding just died... (http://www.washington.edu/news/2014/12/29/william-p-gerberding-27th-president-of-the-university-of-washington-dies-at-85/) Obit isn't notable enough to make UK though. Are there any university presidents who are notable enough?

CNN interview says he voted first for Harry Truman [and CNN interview also plays a montage of his life, making it seem like his true final action to cap off his life]

Jimmy Carter is willing to feel the suffering of Christ as he tries to stay alive just to elect Kamala Harris. It is truly inspiring. He can't even hold conversations on the phone anymore. Vo Nguyen Giap hung on, bedridden, in terrible shape for many many months. If Jesus Christ were president, he would come in the form of Jimmy Carter

Major Jimmy Carter health update also he voted

His Twitter is so choke full of the deaths of people he knew

6 months ago, he still had phone conversations, watched TV/listened to audiobooks, was still mentally lucid much of the time, and enjoyed lots of peanut-butter-ice-cream... Now.. he's basically little more than a zombie. Certainly, a lot more has changed than meets the eye... The only silver lining is that he is lasting way longer than expected.

https://archive.ph/JSM2x for records Well, is he still even listening to audiobooks like he was doing last year?

He's already a centenarian now, if you count time since his first heartbeat... https://manifold.markets/stochasticcockatoo/will-jimmy-carter-become-a-viabilit

TIl there's an AOE2 game mode called "exploding kings" When Carter dies, WE ALL DIE

He beat Charlie Munger

He seems to have a blistering wound on his lower right arm, too... He doesn't heal as well anymore

People can be frail/near-death for *many months*, like Billy Graham... And Billy Graham had way more progressive illnesses than Jimmy. Jimmy isn't bedridden yet.
