What are two of the eras that america's greatest generation survived through? gilded age great depression world war ii spanish-american war

The Great Depression and World War are both two eras that America's Greatest Generation survived through.

The answers are the Great Depression and World War ll. Because the United States was at its worst during that time. The Great Depression affect the U.S. politically, socially, and specifically economically. So did World War ll. It was one of the bloodiest and worst wars in history. 

Hope this helped :)
