That is an interesting observation, because I was going to post the question on how do you feel to be a part of what they call the "greatest generation"?
I think all points made here are the truth. If I'd ask my grandparents the same question, I suppose I'd get the same answer. Neither one of them think there's anything great about quitting school to go to work at age 13 and making do with rationing and army life. It's true that values and attitudes have changed, but I hope that if our country ever faces a situation of such magnitude as WWII it will respond with the same patriotism.
