Jim South, a World War II veteran, has one wish for his 100th birthday coming up on Oct. 7…to receive 100 birthday cards.

The senior living home where South lives posted a picture of him on Facebook with a sign asking for the cards.

“Hello! My name is James South and I am a proud WWII veteran! I will be turning 100 on October 7th, 2019. I would like to receive 100 birthday cards,” said Brookedale Watauga on their Facebook post. 

According to KXII, South joined the Army in 1940 and was deployed to Normandy seven days after D-Day.

South said he already has plans for his birthday card. He says he’s going to hang them in his room.

If you want to send South a special birthday message, you can send cards to:

James South
5800 North Park Drive
Watauga, TX 76148

“Let’s help James reach his goal for his most special year yet.”
