Only living World War II veterans in Dearborn County come together for birthday
Folks at the Lawrenceburg Eagles American Legion Post in Dearborn County are celebrating the final four.
It바카라 게임 웹사이트s not the March Madness Final Four, but rather, the greatest generation바카라 게임 웹사이트s local final four.
George Klopp Sr., George Linng, Clarence Cook and JC Lewis are the final four World War II veterans in Dearborn County who are still living.
On Friday, their friends, family and community came together to celebrate Klopp바카라 게임 웹사이트s 99th birthday.
Not only did Klopp turn 99, but he was able to do it with three other men from his generation who, just like him, lived, fought and saved the world when it was on the brink of destruction.
바카라 게임 웹사이트They call them the greatest generation. To me, they are the America's greatest generation,바카라 게임 웹사이트 PG Gentrup, a member of the Southeastern Honor Guard, said.
Gentrup was part of the group who organized the celebration for Klopp. He knows the importance of getting these men together as much as possible.
바카라 게임 웹사이트I've known George since I was a little kid, sitting on the curb here in Lawrenceburg, watching him and all the World War II veterans and the color guard,바카라 게임 웹사이트 Gentrup said.
Linng will turn 100 years old in August, and Cook will be 99 on Oct. 26. There are celebrations planned for them, as well.
