Approximately 3 million. However, they are passing away at a rate of 1,100 per day! There are approximately 4 million US veterans of WW 2 still living. The number is approximate, because 1,100 of them pass away each day! Thank god the long overdue Memorial to them will finally be dedicated in Washington, DC, on May 29, 2004. Richard V. Horrell WW 2 Connections About 3 1/2 million of the 16 million US Veterans of WW 2 are still with us. We lose on average about 1,100 a day. Richard V. Horrell WW 2 Connections.com

According to the 2000 US census there were 5,739,000 World War 2 veterans still living in the US. A separate census taken by the Veterans Admin. named VetPop2001, totalled the WW2 vets as 5,603,000. The lowest age for a veteran from World War 2 would be about 79 years old in 2009. (There were several 15-year-olds found to have lied about their ages to enlist in 1945.) (see related link)
