Heartbroken

I was in rehab watching the Memorial Day tributes. A young gal came in to take my vitals. The veterans from each war were being honored.

I asked the young gal, “Are you familiar with the history of WWII, Korea and Vietnam?” Her reply was, “I wasn’t around then, that’s before my time.”

How many of her generation are that vacuous?
