We were directly at war with a nation…and we crushed them in the end, with a display of an ungodly power (the a-bomb).

All the other conflicts since then were against divided nations (N/S Korea, N/S Vietnam) or against groups (Taliban, Al Qaeda) rather than nations, or weren’t full-fledged wars, just peace keeping actions, or protective of work on behalf of allied nations.
