This guy rocks but is a dying breed!

America’s oldest veteran is ringing in the big 109 with burgers, cigars, milkshakes and whiskey.

Richard Overton, a World War II veteran from Austin, will turn 109 on May 11. He started celebrating early on Sunday, with a backyard bash, KVUE reported.

Austin police officers, the mayor and Overton’s family gathered at his home for milkshakes, fries and burgers from Mighty Fine Burgers, which lent its name to the party’s theme: “Mighty Fine at 109.”

Overton enjoyed a vanilla shake and cigar — one of at least 12 Tampa Sweets he smokes a day — and told the Wall Street Journal that he loved the party.

I like the attention,” he admitted. “I never thought I would be that important.”

Dang, and this fellow is smoking and drinking and having a milkshake.

I once heard a talk, in Charles Town, West Virginia, by Frank Buckles. He was then America's oldest living WW I veteran. Well over 100, he was still doing his daily exercises and still driving a tractor on his farm.
