Answer 4

War between Pakistan and India (1965 and 1971)

Answer 5

Well Korean War, Lost alot of good men and woman in that one,

Viet Nam, Most of your parents best friends gave there lives there,

but if your looking for civilans killed it's going to be alot harder since most are not documented.

Answer 6

Well, there were the decolonization wars across the world. Then, of course, there is the War on Terror. Off the top of my head, this is what I can think of

Korean War

Vietnam

East Timor and Indonesia

Iran-Iraq War

Persian Gulf War

All those events in Kashmir

Yugoslavia
