Offered the chance to visit anywhere in the country by the group Wish of a Lifetime, this Michigan veteran chose Sarah Winchester's famous mansion, which was financed by the rifles her husband manufactured.

Watson is a devoted Winchester fan and knows each model.

"Oh I do, yes, I've seen it all, fired 'em all,” Watson said. “I've been doing it since I was 14, and I'm the back side of 80 right now."

Watson couldn’t get enough of his favorite subject: When he got tired of touring the gun room in his walker, he made relatives pushed him in a wheelchair.

Wish of a Lifetime was formed to enrich the lives of seniors, especially veterans.
