Britain’s Oldest Man Reveals Secret to His Long Life
According to the British newspaper “Daily Mail”, Donald Rose, Britain’s oldest living man, celebrated his 110th birthday on Christmas Eve.
The article notes that Rose holds France’s highest honor, the Legion of Honour Medal.
When discussing the secret to his long life, the newspaper quoted a worker from a care home: “He says there’s no secret to a long life, but he believes his insides were ‘pickled’ from drinking seawater and dog biscuits during the war.”
The piece also mentions that Rose received a birthday card from Buckingham Palace and enjoyed an opera song at a celebration party in his honor.
The sprightly centenarian seemed thrilled with the occasion, declaring it “the best day he’s ever
lived” in his life which spans over 40,150 days.
Born in 1914, the same year World War I began in Britain, Donald Rose went on to fight in World
War II when he was 25, serving on the front lines in an armored division.
