I’m going to go 1920 as a crap birth year. Teenage years straight through the Great Depression just to get sent to war when you reached adulthood.

The 1895 kids, who went to war just to come back and get the Spanish Flu anyway are also pretty tough.

Here’s the thing about the Americans: we were fighting in that war for less than a year. Even as brutal as WWI was, they got off light compared to their grandparents in the Civil War and their kids in WWII.
