Most of the World War II veterans are in their 80s now, and many are dying. Their families are putting some of their possessions up for bid on eBay.

Today, 90 percent of them are World War II veterans, now in their 80s.

We want to thank all World War II veterans, their families and the American people who supported the effort on the home front. The young men and women who served in uniform and on the home front are now in their 80s and 90s. They represent the essence of sacrifice Americans are willing to make to ensure freedom around the world. Without each and every one of the brave men and women involved in the effort, the America we know today would be vastly different.

It's not only World War II, but we're losing Vietnam veterans, Korean.

I think there's a high interest in World War II now. We're losing the veterans. It's important to remember.

Almost any veterans of foreign wars can tell you war stories, especially after a couple of beers.
