A 100-year-old World War Two vet named Harold Terens is being honored in France this June at an event for the 80th anniversary of D-Day.  And he’s planning to also get married while he’s there.  He’s been dating a 96-year-old woman since 2021, and they’re in love. The couple and their families will head to Paris in late May, where Terens and a handful of surviving World War II veterans will be honored. Of the 16 million American WWII veterans, the government says only 120,000 remain.
