French aviator Valérie André (Wiki) turns 100 today and became a centenarian 

 

WW 2 heroin and  famous French aviator Valérie André dead today at 102. Sad news. She was many times decorated for her service during WW2. With her death, it's my 2th hit for my personal FDL....and it's an other famous French centenarian who passes away.

 

Edit : She was foremost a heroin of the Indochina War and was decorated for her service during these conflict.

To be more specific, Valérie André didn’t serve in WW2, but in Indochina and Algeria wars.

I believe all except Rodríguez Lara, Enrile, Harberger and Soyuyüce are dead. Can't find anything from recent decades on the others.

 

You could have Siphandone and Sonomyn Luvsangomvo, maybe Mukarram Talabani there. And to be honest, a 95+ list in the Political Frailty thread would be much more interesting, most of the living notable centenarians are on our radars.

Talabani is still very much alive and might've been born 1923 instead of 1925. Here's an image of him from last year:

Mukarram Talabani dead at 102.
