The only thing worth bashing is the idea of attaching importance to "generations". People are people, whether they are born in 1918 or 1988.

correct my friend...

same type of talk when "old Marines" from WWII, talk about Korean Marines that talk about Vietnam Marines, that talk about Grenada Marines...that talk about Gulf War 1 and present Marines...

Everybody thought they were bad a##es... and the younger ones were softer...

Well after seeing the video of Falluja and hearing from friends and classmates, an old WWII Sgt. Maj. got a tear in his eye and said ,"this new crop of Marines make me so damn proud I can't stand it.".... he was commenting on the bravery and just sheer integrity that they showed....

same with Gen X'ers and Baby Boomers.... it's all media hype to make you "work at jobs you hate to buy crap you don't need."....

people are people.... amen.
