I made this little piece about him and his recollection of WWI.
I hope you enjoy it.

And I just realized The Archive was also your work. Your productions are incredibly important.
Other than that it was great. He seemed like a nice old guy with a lot of stories to tell. I would love to shake his and and thank him for his service to this country whether right or worng or whatever the reason we got into that war or any other. I hope we would have the same respect for our military and vets involved in the middle east as well.
In January my wife will be deploying for 12 months to Afghanistan. I certanily hope she will see 107 year old.
The bit about Iraq though would probably be one of the first questions I would want to ask the veteran about though. Maybe not so much about Iraq specifically, but more along the lines how he has seen the theater of war change throughout his lifetime. He has definitely lived through a bunch of them.
I felt that his perspective about war was very relevant to the piece.
So interesting documentarie.
I hope you're drinking a large beer, now!
Thinking of posting a HD version?
BTW, you certainly know how to use the "B" rolls/shots.
Also, I don't know if you realize it... but, historically... the stuff you are doing will continue to have significant value into the future.
It was a pleasure and a privilege to listen to his memories and observations.
