Annibale Ciarniello (January 9, 1900, Bagnoli del Trigno, Province of Isernia – January 3, 2007) was one of the last surviving veterans of the first World War at the time of his death, as well as the oldest medical doctor in Italy and one of the oldest people in the country. In 1926, Ciarniello graduated from medical school at the University of Naples where he studied for a degree in Medicine and Surgery. He was still a practicing doctor for his close family members until the last year of his life, because he felt such great satisfaction and pride from his work.
