VANITY: What is the generational breakdown of Freeprs?
4/19/2019 | maceman

Posted on 04/19/2019 4:42:05 PM PDT by Maceman

I am a baby boomer (born 1950).

I have the impression that most Freepers are baby boomers or older. Am I right?

What generation are you in? When were you born?

I agree with you

Half the forum. At least born prior to 1965

Not many under 40s

I’m the zenith of boomers and USA births in general

Born in fifty seven raised in Hinds county....

Tell me that funny.

I’m 61 and as a boy almost all my peers dad’s were WWII vets

As a young cowboys and Indians or rebs and Yankees or us versus krauts or japs

We’d always ask how many folks they killed ....most took it in stride knowing we were grade school

The usual answer was I was too busy ducking I couldn’t tell or I’m not really sure they were far off

One man though who was career marine and was a lt colonel by 1934-64 at that point and had done the Pacific island hopping campaign

He looked square in the eyes and told me more than I could count son....they just kept coming...they were fanatics.....we were lucky we whooped em.

I never forgot that man his dad was like superhero to all of us in the neighborhood

Course nobody ever brought it up again

My uncle killed a young jap in Borneo in a clearing face to face...he took the boys personals and mailed them to his family after VJ Day

It bothered him

Was he a member of the "Retreads" veterans organization, for men who served in both WWI & WWII?

A family friend of ours - our "adopted Grandpa" - loved to tell people that he was the National Chaplain of the Retreads. Then after they'd show that they were very impressed, he'd give a sly grin and add, "Of course, there's less than a couple of dozen of us left, and I'm the only ordained pastor in the bunch, so...."

He had a lot of self-deprecating humor like that.

one of my biggest regrets is not making the first Freeper ball. I was alone with four kids... trying to make the jumbo mortgage payments, working outside the home for the first time in years.

FR helped. After the kids were in bed, there was adult conversation.

I wish we could find more people and another generation.

I think the site is too slow for the younger ones.

If we could post pics easily and had like buttons.

I think we had like buttons once. Or was it view counters.

Yes it was view counters.

This has been a great place to grow old with.


It has been good. I am a shy one so it has permitted me to talk with so many others here. Good people.

I have a friend who has a place in the Adirondacks, love to visit there.
