I just love when people blame the Boomers for stuff that happened when they weren't able to vote. Is that what we're doing here? Most Boomers couldn't vote until the late 60s, early 70s.
Now, I will say they are the absolute most propagandized generation. About 1000 movies were released about WWII from 1940-1980. Yes, 1940 predates them, but it doesn't predate dads, uncles, aunts, moms and other family members who would likely make young Boomers watch.
