This is meant to be a list of possible last known veterans from conflicts and military events throughout history followed by veterans from any noteworthy battles and/or fighting groups. These lists are a work in progress so most veterans whose deaths occurred before the 83th anniversary of the war/battle will be replaced eventually. Generally speaking and depending on the number of participants, veterans who live a few years beyond this point have a high probability of being the last surviving participants. The lists contain original research as not all of these veterans are specifically cited as being "the last" so be sure to check the links to differentiate between veterans who are cited as being the last and veterans that I am using as a benchmark until I am able to find one with a reliable source which claims they are "the last".
