Thousands of Baby Boomers gave their lives and limbs in Vietnam.
Which is why the second paragraph of my reply exempted the more admirable members of that generation -- those who gave their lives in Vietnam certainly being among them. But when people talk about "Baby Boomers" in the media, they aren't talking about the people you are talking about. They aren't even talking about George W. Bush or John McCain. They are talking about the Bill and Hillary Clintons, the John Kerrys, the Jane Fondas, and the Billy Joels. I don't hear too many proud Vietnam vets talking about "Baby Boomers this" and "Baby Boomers that". In fact, if you listened to those "Baby Boomers", you'd think that everyone was against the war in Vietnam and we did nothing to be proud about there. Ever notice the total lack of interest in what Vietnam is really like since the Communists took over?
