Mikhail Efimovich Krichevsky (Ukrainian: Михайло Юхимович Кричевський; 25 February 1897 – 26 December 2008) was a Ukrainian supercentenarian. He was the last surviving World War I veteran of the Imperial Russian Army. Krichevsky joined the army in 1917 and accounts differ as to whether he was sent to the Austro-Hungarian front. After the October Revolution he returned home, where he settled and lived in Donetsk.
