Veterans Day
Zero. There are no more World War One vets alive anymore. Florence Green of England was the last veteran of WW1 and past away on February 4th 2012.
Veterans Day originally celeberated "Armistice Day" marking the end of WW1 .
As of 2011 there were 401,000 veterans in the state of Alabama. There are currently only 11 living veterans from WW1.
In most countries one had to be 18 or older in order to fight. WW1 was fought from 1914-18, so someone who fought for a few months in 1918 would have been born in 1900 (or earlier). Obviously, some men lied about their age but it does mean that veterans are now well over 100, and there are very few still alive.
