   You have an exellent point.Yet I have to argue about The French and
Indain War,we were actaualy a part of England.The French helped us at the
last minute so it really doesn't count if you really look at it.Gulf war
it was basicly us.Korean war was the same.I'm glad you replyed calmly
because I was having a bad day.
