Jozef Kowalski doesn't even belong on this list. There is no citation for an enlistment date and nothing that explicitly states he was a veteran of that war. He is no more a veteran of WWI than my cousin is a veteran of Korea (the state of war in Korea has never ended). There is also a technicality that allows service members in the U.S. to declare themselves a veteran of the Gulf War for compensation. To say he was a veteran of WWI even with a citation for the enlistment date would be [[WP:SYNTH|synthesis]].
