Wow. Whilst I can understand that you may not consider the recent stuff in the Middle East major because not so many Americans have been affected, how you can say that Vietnam was anything other than major for the USA (especially considering the psychological effect of "losing" after all those deaths) and at least three other countries, I do not know.
