CIVIL WAR/WW2 history...... help me out.

CIVIL WAR/WW2 history...... help me out.
I know I am a pain in the ass, and I don't know if I am reading this wrong or misunderstanding but this is the article title I picked up on WIKI.

"Google headline for a wiki article, " Eight presidents served during World War IIwhile seven served in the military during the American Civil War."

According to this link. 


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_pr...vil%20War.

The how the fuck can you serve in the civil war and WW2? Maybe I am reading this wrong, but those 7 must have had good genes and been eating their Wheaties.  I don't get it, 

There was like 5 billion years between those wars, and how young were those 7 served in the Civil War? I swear I am not on meth, I simply cant wrap my head around this.

DAM IT, I think I was mislead by the line.

They were talking about overall numbers not one president serving in both wars.

I know people get old, but that line I quoted made no sense. Took me some time to figure it out.
