9/11 Generation

My comment on DB's latest post on his Sthttp://weeklystandard.com/Content/Public/Articles/000/000/013/904pffgs.aspandard article.

Baby Boomers
Ah, 'Little Papi', what has thou wrought?

Reading all of the above has given me a large headache. I have been trying to determine what generation I am from. Born in 1936, I am too late to be the 'greatest' and too early to be a 'boomer'. As an enlistee in 1956, I was too late for Korea and too early for Vietnam [managed to change that in 1962 however]. As an NCO, I watched the deterioration of the Army throughout the sixties, finally giving it up in 1970 [no pension is worth this much bulls..t].

Has the boomer generation had a profound negative impact on life in the good old Hew Ess of AAA? Without a doubt. The attitude of ME has been passed on to at least three other genrations. Those young men and women who have answered the call [Little Papi's 9/11ers] are the exception, not the norm. They are not 'chickenhawks' nor 'neo-cons', but patriots.
