A serving member who thinks that those who didn't enlist in their generation earlier are soft, entitled or woke. Army Boomers are the type to obsess over old school figures real/fictional like R Lee Ermey or John Rambo.
They are:
- Hypocritical in demanding respect when they have disrespected people who served for their race, gender or even sexual orientation and other characteristics.
- Willfully ignorant in realizing that times are changing and that it is a soldier's duty to adapt to changing conditions but rather than adapt or quit they choose to complain without taking action.
- Arrogant in thinking that being in the military makes you better than a civilian which defeats the narrative that the military is a selfless service. Often they carry an insecurity towards their own masculinity which manifests in being really defensive over criticism of the organization they serve or the need to say they served.
- In denial of recognizing that the past generations that served were not perfect and often romanticized those days despite not necessarily living in those days.
- always bragging about past accomplishments and yet can't conveniently name any accomplishments now. Always obsessing with the past which is a red flag that they think abuse is discipline or an old school way which is an admission that they approved or practiced the methods in the past.

Sgt: fucking snowflakes, back in my day we didn't have to talk about feelings and we had to take it like real soldiers! The last good soldier was in the 1980s.
Pvt: What's wrong with the Sergeant?
Cpl: Ahh don't worry, he's just being an army Boomer.

Get the Army Boomer mug.I despise the baby boomer generation.
I hate these people they are the most self serving, entitled, inconsiderate and rude people of all time. The Boomers just take up space and suck up resources. Lived with all the advantages the greatest generation afforded them and then just shit on everything and everyone else. They are terrified of everything and so selfish they want nothing left for the next generations and want to ruin the planet before they drop dead. They smoked, drank, snorted everything and drove up the insurance by everyone having to cover their health costs from partying in the 60s and 70s. Now they vote against anyone else having the same options afforded to them because they got theirs. I pretend to not hate them and just try to not have to deal with them.

We spent half the meeting explaining how the new IoT sensors work because our Boomer Engineer thought "the cloud" was just a fancy term for offsite storage.
