The Generation Table: Where Do You Fit In?

I think we've had a thread about this before, but might be fun to give it another whirl.

I'm at the tail end of the Boomers, and right near the beginning of Gen X. I was born in 1966.
According to your chart, at 1943, I'm the tail end of the silent generation, although I doubt we are any more silent than the others. We were just a small group without much birthing going on because most of the men were off fighting in WWII. I've always thought of myself as from the War Baby generation.

A year later America was reproducing again. In my 8th grade class in a Chicago suburb, there were 18 kids. The 7th grade class that came after ours had 60 kids and required two separate classrooms and were the beginning of the Baby Boomers.
