Gertrude Leblanc is humble, good gracious. I didn't know all this was going to be happening. And the Manassas woman will tell you that today is overwhelming as she's in the spotlight, family, friends, leaders and the Freedom Museum in Manassas. Happy birthday to you are celebrating Gertrude's 1/100 birthday. About the same as 99 overwhelmed. They just told me I needed, they'd pick me up around one o'clock and I didn't know why or where or what. And here I am, she joined the army as an army corps nurse before deploying during World War Two to SaiPan. Not very pleasant. Had some tough cases. She decided to join the army after *** movie experience she had in the forties, they showed pictures of the war and that they needed nurses and stuff. And I walked out of the movie and there was Uncle Sam statue standing there saying we need you or something like that. She won't tell you much about the time she was in Vietnam during the war, but that was my husband's duty. He was State Department Monday. She celebrated her birthday in the museum alongside the Manassas mayor and her great grandchildren. She lives alone and says she loves to read books, do what you're supposed to do and, uh, be good to people.
