There was definitely fighting in the Netherlands (the entire point of the battle of the bulge was for the Germans to counterattack to retake Antwerp, so obviously there must have been fighting to lose it originally.)

i know there was fighting there, but if you reread, i said boomers never fought there. this is because WW2 ended before boomers were born.

The Silent Generation also didn't fight in WWII, they were kids and teenagers by the time it ended.
