Talk:List of last surviving veterans of military operations

Article name change
The name of the article should be changed to something other than "military engagements" to better represent the topic of the list. Military engagements are usually seen as small instances of combat, hardly comparable to most of the entries in the article. Instead, I propose the name should be changed to List of last surviving veterans of military operations. "Military operation" is a blanket term which includes engagements, battles, raids, and other instances of combat that are covered by the article. Lemunz (talk) 19:45, 24 June 2019 (UTC)

Should last survivors of nuclear testing be included here
Like USA testing operations like Operation Cross Roads, UK testing operations like Operation Grapple etc because there are very few survivors left of those operations.
 * I think the eventual last survivors of those bombing tests should be on the last survivors of historic events list as, though they can be described as strikes, their purposes seem to be more aligned with research than they were with causing disruption through malicious intent against another combatant.

Missing Battle in WWII
I'm looking at the battles in WWII, and I just realized that there is nothing on the survivors of Operation Overlord, aka D-Day. I don't have the available resources to fix this problem, so can someone help? For the first survivor, I would like to add my step-uncle, Clair Newton. He served in the U.S. Army Ground Forces as a radio operator, the kind that called in artillery strikes. He is a surviving veteran of D-Day and I believe is 100 something.
