I don't think counterculture started in 1960. Also it stayed relevant until mid-80s at least. Rajneesh was popular during Reagan's presidency. I consider 1986 (Chernobyl) as end of the awakening. Definitely it made people more cynical.

If we adopt Pew's definition of generation Y as 1980-1994 and Z as 1995-2012, it would fit here perfectly. New generations start about 4 years before new turnings.
I also wondered if Pew's gen Z represents a fifth archetype unknown to S and H, since it is quite popular among today's youth. And it's the Z who are true civic millennials, if your method is correct.

Missionary generation and cynicism? Seriously?
No the counterculture had not but the charismatic revival certainly had begun by that time. Absolutely the counter culture was still relevant in the mid 1980s, it had not completely diffused. Read my explanation of the turnings in the comments. Yes the Missionary generation were a cynic generation. Read my comments above regarding the various archetypes.
