In another decade or so there will be no more living WWII veterans.

I know, it's a shame. There will be the odd handful that manage to live into their hundreds, but not many left. My grandfather was one of the original Achnacarry commando's, who ended up having his life saved by a german. He's still going but can't walk and pretty much lost his marbles.

Yup.  And then it will be the Korean War veterans that will perish.  Then the Vietnam War veterans will follow.   There will be a time in the future where Veterans of the 1991 Gulf War will be old men in their 90's.
