What is your earliest memory in this life?

I don't know if this has happened to anyone else but i asked quite a few youngsters my kids generation 30 something and the generation under that 20 something many didn't have much recall when asked what there first memory was.
Is this something the older ones recall because it seems the older you get what happened last week seems harder to remember rather than what happened years ago.

All those old soldiers seem to remember explicitly when asked about there war time capers and they would have only been 18 plus then.
