What a woman! Very sad to see the last of the generation has gone. I didn't know the WRAF was as old an institution as that.

The last vet of the war that would end all wars dieing is a sad thing. Here we are most of a 100 years later and we're still fighting.

Asked what it was like to be 110, Green said "It's not much different to being 109."

I'll bet she was a neat lady to know. Rest in Peace.
