“Interestingly, Jackie Kennedy would have been silent generation (only 12 when USA entered WWII)”
—
I’d count her in for being married to JFK, as you know, who was in WWII.
I had thought about that too.
Also the psychological impact of WWII on a 12-14 year old girl compared to a 17-33 year old woman would not be as great as it would be for a 12-14 year old boy vs. a 17-33 year old man (numbers correspond to Bush 41 and Johnson).
Of course this makes Melania a boomer (born 1970).
Bigger differences: Julia Gardiner Tyler (30 years), Frances Folsom Cleveland (27 years) - both married during their husbands’ terms.
