You were a minority to begin with. A solid majority of "boomers" supported the war in the '60s. This is another of those abstractions that really doesn't name anything. And remember, it was Time magazine that invented and popularized the idea of the "boomers" as a generation with supposedly common features. It was also Time that invented the "Yuppies," when after all as high a proportion of that generation as of any other generation was in the lower income brackets.
