The Baby Boomers 1946 to1964; Generation X 1965 t0 1980; Generation Y the Millennia's 1981 to 2000; Generation Z 2001 to present;
The 4 generations posted are rule of thumb; and represent about 90% of todays population; each group is about 21 to 24 percent of todays population. This information may seem trivial to some but i think it gives a lot of insight to how you see History, post and play the game, would be interesting to see comments and thoughts on subject.

I'm a Baby Boomer 1948
You win! You beat me by a hair. I thought I was the oldest guy around here.
I'm at the tail end of Gen X but both my parents are older than the Boomers. My mom is from Halifax and my dad was in the RCN between Korea and Nam. They're both old enough to remember air raid drills and both their fathers worked in war production roles. My mom in particular remembers Halifax during late war and the couple tense years post war. My dad told me a story about going to see fireworks as a kid and watching a vet have a breakdown during the display. Full PTSD hallucinating episode. Apparently, everyone just held him and soothed him until he calmed. Even strangers.
So demographically, my view of WW2 history might be skewed because I'm not actually that far removed from it in a generation sense. I bet I'd be closer to the boomers myself than the average Gen Xer
