Yeah, I don't think Grenada or even Panama counts. Everything since WWII has been ambiguous or murky. As you say, not much that the country can agree on.

"Clear cut" is a malleable term. America's victory in WWII lead to the Cold War because America allied with Communist Soviet Union in their war against the Nazis. IMHO, the only clear cut American military victory was the American Revolution.

Well, a clear-cut victory with any moral authority, anyway. Reagan beat Grenada pretty decisively, but such bullying is hardly praiseworthy. It was neither ethical nor impressive. Instead, it was therapy for what hawkish pundits dubbed our "Vietnam Syndrome." But we clearly won.

The us won in the Pacific. The red army did the dirty work in Europe and deserves a ton of credit. That being said, they never would have reached Germany without us aid. It was a legitimate team effort.
