Right. And we weren't at war in Korea (police action) or Viet Nam (just a mere resolution) either. Maybe it's just me, but if our troops are getting shot at on a regular basis and wounded are coming home, then we're at war. Winding down perhaps... but... we're getting off topic so I'll cease and desist.
We can just agree that our military spending is over inflated and needs to be drastically reduced. Same with several other government programs...
