Blame the declining number of WWII Vets, suggests the story.
Perhaps WWII was a unique event in American history, a war for such "honest" purposes that it produced VFW like groups to continue the bonds that were created during it? The "Good War", it's sometimes called, without making the ones that followed bad. Just murkier.
WWII included an easily hated enemy, the almost complete support of those not serving in the military, and a hard-fought easily defined victory.
Has that combination appeared anytime recently?
