The very negative attitude of some in the post-boomer generations is amazing. How sad not to acknowledge that many did not join in with all the drugs, anti-war, hippie etc crap. My husband served in Vietnam and earned a Purple Heart and other honors, we both avoided the whole '70's scenario on campus and off as well. Like many others, we've lived charitable, productive lives. Some of us boomers have always been at odds with the vocal members of our generation who seem to symbolize us all.
Please give this boomer's thanks to your husband for his service.
God Bless your hubby Bonnie! And thank him for his service from this very grateful Freeper.
