Join us as we take a look back at the past 10 commanders-in-chief when they were young, starting with Jimmy Carter, who celebrates his 99th birthday on Oct. 1, 2023\u2026<\/p>\n

In 1946, a young Jimmy Carter posed for a portrait in honor of his graduation from the United States Naval Academy. He was just 21 at the time.<\/p>\n

In May 2023, Jason Carter \u2014 the grandson of former President Jimmy Carter and former first lady Rosalynn Carter \u2014 gave an update on his grandfather’s health three months after reps for the political leader, 98, announced he was entering hospice care at his modest Plains, Georgia, home “instead of [seeking] additional medical intervention” following a series of short hospital stays.<\/span> Jason opened up after speaking at an event honoring his grandfather, CBS News reported, sharing that Jimmy remained in good spirits and was enjoying ice cream as he stayed abreast of updates on his foundation’s humanitarian work around the world as well as public discussion of his legacy. <\/span><\/p>\n

“He is certainly getting to see the outpouring and it’s been gratifying to him for sure<\/span>,” Jason said, explaining that his grandparents are “just meeting with family right now, but they’re doing it in the best possible way: the two of them together at home. They’ve been together 70-plus years. They also know that they’re not in charge. Their faith is really grounding in this moment. In that way, it’s as good as it can be.” He added that the family is also in a positive frame of mind. “We did think that when he went into hospice it was very close to the end,” Jason said. “Now, I’m just going to tell you, he’s going to be 99 in October.”<\/p>\n
