Well, I was in the third grade when 9/11 happened, and there was never any kind of formal education about it, because we had all just experienced it. Kids just a few years younger than me wouldn't remember it at all, but likely still wouldn't have learned about it in school yet. That's probably where this guy falls
I had to do a bunch of my own learning about the gulf war. Similarly, it happened before I was born but recent enough that history teachers didn't consider it history. I now think it set the stage for a lot of the US geopolitically and I really should've learned about it in school.
