Three years ago, Buckles attracted the crowd from his wheelchair in the Pentagon (美國國防部 ) hall, as speakers, including U． S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates, offered their praise and thanks. “ We cherish the memory of those who have passed away， ” said Gates.“We cherish the chance to say thank you in person to Corporal Frank Buckles. We will always be grateful for what they did for their country, and feel glad, too, for the long life that they enjoyed on this earth.” Buckles was also weled at the White House that week, by then president Gee W. Bush. “ It has been my high honor to wele Mr. Buckles, and his daughter, Susannah， ” said Bush. “ Mr. Buckles has rich historic experiences. Thank you very much for your patriotism (愛國心 ) and your love for America.” Buckles wanted to serve when World War Ⅰ broke out, and his lie to the officer for his age made it possible. Shortly afterward, at the age of 16, he was sent to Europe as an ambulance driver. He saw the horror of war close up, driving the wounded from the trenches (戰(zhàn)壕 ) to field hospitals. Later, he drove German prisoners back to Germany. Buckles left the army in 1920 and years later he went to work for a shipping pany in the Philippines. When World War Ⅱ broke out, he and other Americans there were put in prison camps by the occupying Japanese forces. The cup he used at that time is in the background of his 2021 portrait (肖像 ), which now hangs with eight others along one of the Pentagon39。s many corridors. In a statement issued Monday, President Barack Obama and his wife Michelle praised Buckles, saying he continued to serve America until his death, as the Honorary Chairman of the World War Ⅰ Memorial Foundation. The Obamas said they joined the Buckles family in celebrating a remarkable life that reminded them of the true meaning of patriotism. 1． We can learn from Paragraph 4 that Frank Buckles________.
