“What generation between[baby boomers] and war babies are you referring to?”
I was born in 1944. There were many of us, born from, say, 1936 to 1945, who were too young to remember anything about the Great Depression or WWII, so we were not part of that “Greatest Generation” which survived the Depression and fought the War. Nor were we really part of the Boomers who started arriving after the troops came home. Yet we were the ones who actually DID many of the things the Boomers get credit for (or the blame for, in some cases). And we are the old timers, aged 74 to 84, in leadership positions in politics and business and so on, who refuse to go away or give up our power and influence.
Then you’re a War Baby. They were born between 1942 and 1945. Two of my older brothers are war babies. The three other siblings including myself were boomers. Some categorize those born between 1925 and 1945 as the silent generation but war babies is more specific for those like you.
