Joe Cuba, seated center, listens as Lt. Col. Shane Lensgraf, 365th Training Squadron commander, welcomes the 99-year-old former Army Air Force aircraft maintainer during a birthday celebration for Cuba at Sheppard Air Force Base, Texas, Feb. 28, 2019. More than 100 Sheppard Airman paid their respects to Cuba, who turns 100 on March 2, and thanked him for his service during World War II. Cuba became somewhat of an internet sensation when a photo of him was posted on Facebook to see if he could receive 100 birthday wishes. He received thousands.
