What was the oldest age to be evacuated?

The oldest age to be evacuated during significant historical evacuations, like those in World War II, varied by event and location. For instance, during the Dunkirk evacuation in 1940, many soldiers in their 40s were among those evacuated. However, specific records of the oldest individual evacuated are often not documented, making it difficult to pinpoint an exact age. Generally, older individuals were often prioritized in evacuations, depending on the circumstances.
