I'd say you were "lucky".

Neither Korea or Vietnam ended up being fought to be won.

Too much politics and not enough will to get the job done.

Thanks, you make a good point. So much loss off life?

Yes, my uncle is still upset about the politics of those battles. He thinks that because of the relationship between China and the N. Koreans (not good relations) we should have worked with them instead of against them. I have to spend more time talking to him about these things.

The same goes with the Gulf war in Kuwait/Iraq.
