They are the "Better Red than dead" and "Peace at any price" generation.

I'm really sick of the Boomer bashing.

Tens of millions of us VOLUNTERED to serve in the military. Who the hell do you think manned the armed forces from Vietnam to the end of the Cold War?

In case many of you haven't noticed the "Greatest Generation" had plenty of card carrying Stalinists, Progressives, and Peaceniks to mobilize in the 30's, 40's, and 50's. And remember the Second World War was led and generaled by a generation born in the 18 90's and 1900's. EVERY generation has it's Hero's and it's Zero's.

***I'm really sick of the Boomer bashing. ***

I AM THE BOOMER GENERATION! I can say what I want about them, yet I have not been tainted by the 1960's radicalism.

I also served 3.75 years in the military, 1966-1969, honorable discharge, whereas the better red than dead, peace at any price crowd were taking college deferments.
