The WWII generation was born around 1905 through 1927. That is not the same as the group you listed. I have no idea what you are trying to prove.

That was a great generation, I think mainly because of their “can do” attitude.

There were other “great” generations too. Probably the ones who fought the Revolution and War Between the States were as great as any.

I still think the WWII generation was a special one. Reading the history of my Father’s outfit, I was simply awed by their ability to do things fast and well. Many times I found it hard to believe what they accomplished.

There isn’t a WWII generation as defined by the generations that we commonly use.

There was not a single generation that fought WWII, some of those men were old, and some of those men were still fighting in Vietnam years later.
