The Silent Generation, born between 1925-1945, represents the group of children born during the Great Depression and through World War II. So named because of their apparent silence in culture, media, etc. No spark or vitality like their parents the GI Generation.

The Silent Generation fought in the Korean War.

Called the Air Raid Generation in Britain because of the regular bombings from Germany during WWII.

Tom Brokaw was walking the Normany beach about 30 years ago, and talked to a number of the soldiers who had invaded the Normany beaches 40 years before. He wrote a book called "The Greatest Generation", because these people had grown up during the Great Depression, then fought during the Great War, and then gone home to build the greatest economy the world has ever known.
