"It's a reminder of a great passage in our lives," Brokaw said. "It's a reminder to the generation coming up of the sacrifices that were made."

Just go away little Brokaw. You were a news reader. You stand on a box when you read your lines. Where you could you bashed America...then you wrote a book talking about what most Americans already knew and lived. You worked against us. Now move off the stage. Please God. Just move on.

"unity, humility and sacrifice"

Well, if the portion of them represented by AARP is any guide, they certainly have unity. I'm not so sure about the other 2.

"It's my lasting contribution."

Oh gawd, I had to blow my nose twice. Which generation did Brokeshaw belong to? I've never seen that printed anywhere.

Evidently, Brokaw thinks he is an important man in America. Delusional!!

The modern American left, of which Brokaw is a card-carrying member, cut its teeth in the 1960's by rejecting and spitting on the values of the 'greatest generation'. Brokaw's self-serving praise is not only hollow but obscenely hypocritical. After the damage the left-wing MSM has done to this country, it's reprehensible that this man should profit from pretending to admire and respect that which he was instrumental in destroying.

Their lessons - unity, humility and sacrifice -

Unyielding greed, raising a generation of hippies, and social programs. Greatest generation my @$$!
