60th Anniversary of the End of WWII

There are a number of official events being planned around the US to mark the 60th Anniversary of the end of World War II and to again honor the veterans.

A rather stunning statistic from the site:

"Among all males aged 75 or over in 2005, 50 percent will be WWII veterans, while 1.5 percent of all women of that age will be WW II veterans."
