The end of the war is pretty clearly defined, but not so the term "Boomers". The increase in the birth rate that created that term actually began in 1943, so some include that year. It was a "Baby Boom", not "End of the War Boom". Others tie it to the end of the War. Either way, there were a lot of us born between 1943 and 1950. We created the huge demand for schools, housing, etc. Even RV's and RV parks.
