I had a neighbor who served in WW1. He was in Halifax when the munitions ship exploded that was almost as large and explosion as Hiroshima. Mr. Hickman was a great guy. I moved out of the parents home, and later he moved as well. I am not sure what happened to him. Godspeen Mr. Landis.

Cook passed away at age 106.??? That means he was born in 1901. The Spanish-American War was fought in 1898, three years before he was born. Perhaps the article is in reference to the "Punitive Expedition" aka The US-Mexican war which ended in 1917 I believe. In any event it is sad to see an era fade into history. I'm glad we have so much testimony of the WWI vets on film to preserve their gallant service in perpetuity. Spanish-American War veteran Nathan E. Cook passed away at age 106.???
