How did I miss this six months ago?
As a Brit, I can say that I know very little about it, it is not covered in schools here - maybe some university courses will touch on it but not for mainstream education. I've double-checked with my history-teaching wife and it's definately not covered. History, so they say, is written by the victors, and that must definately be the case here. If we don't mention it then it'll get forgotten about.
I probably know more about every other American conflict than I do about the one against my own country!
