Imagine being a 1925 born WW2 vet. You fought and bled through horrors to free europe! Then you used your gi pay to move out to california and start a buisness and a family in LA. Maybe a construction company that picked up work building sets for hollywood, you worked hard and saw your labor contribute to bringing some of the great american classics to life! And you built some houses for your community on the side.
You hit your 40s in the 60s, your 60s in the 80s, when the WTC fell you were 76. You were already noticing some very strange things going on but it was still your home.
You'd be 100 years old now, likely wheelchair bound and unable to do anything as you've had to simply sit and watch for the past 20 years as something you spent your entire life building from the ground up is turned into an unfathomable nightmare that rivals mordor.
There's a non 0 chance somebody like this is alive out there right now.
