Not to mention that Platner is familiar with the history of US warfare to being able to name provincial ones he'd like to have fought in. Nobody that knows about Manifest Destiny wars to that extent is ignorant on WW2, and you can't learn about WW2 for more than a few minutes before seeing a Totenkopf because the nazis put it on everything
i don't fully recall the context of the question, was ww2 an "american war" for that purpose? did other respondents say ww2?
the only just "american" war is against the united states, other than the civil war and the best outcome there would've been both sides losing somehow.
