IDK, greatest generation? IDK, All Quiet on the Western Front, Slaughterhouse 5...
I don't see anything heroic or memorable in any of this. I am not immune - I am of Germanic descent- my father was RCAF, my step-father was Luftwaffe. Neither of them romanticized war, ever.
What does that mean - greatest generation? The generation that slaughtered millions of themselves, is that cause for celebration?
It's all human slaughter no matter how you label it. Nothing to be memorialized or celebrated or even justified.
Just forget it FFS and move on...
