Best Answer

Approximately 24 million Americans are military veterans; 1.7 million are women.

• More than 18 million veterans of American wars are living, including approximately:

- Fewer than 50 World War I veterans

- 3.5 million World War II veterans

- 3.2 million Korean conflict veterans

- 8.0 million Vietnam veterans

- 2.4 million Persian Gulf War veterans, including current conflicts

- An additional approximately 6 million peacetime (between wars) veterans.

Only 5% of all of these groups put together, are alive today.

Did any civil war vets also serve in WW1?

Possibly but I doubt it, as about fifty years had passed between the two wars. There were many Civil War veterans alive at the time of World War 1, but they would have been somewhat elderly for serving in another war.
