Yes, WWI did create a "lost generation", which is what they refer to the survivors of WWI. However, this "lost" generation isn't exactly lost as in lost and found. This generation was lost in thought, because the Lost Generation did not know what to do after the war, and they felt depressed and scared. What they were lost in was in thought, and what they lost was hope and a feeling of security.
