Damn, I know people in their 60s that looks exponentially worse than this fellow.

Also I liked this:
"What was it like meeting the president? Was it exciting?"
"No. It was just like meeting you."

Happy Birthday Mr. Overton!

Damn that's badass.

Nothing but respect for this guy. He needs to go around to some schools and just yell at kids for a bit and tell them to act right. Not a person around that couldn't learn a little something from him.

Somebody buy that guy ALL the BMF wallets.

Respect

Kick ass!

He's now officially the oldest surviving WWII veteran and a week away from being the same age as this man was.

He was 110.

He was born in North Carolina, one of seven children. Levingston enlisted in the U.S. Army in 1942.

He served as a private during the war in the Allied invasion of Italy which lasted from September 1943 to January 1944.
