Total conventional warfare has not really been used on a major large scale since the Korean War. This is army against army. In Vietnam the U.S. was able to defeat the NVA by means of conventional warfare. This was a problem for the NVA who knew that they could be defeated by conventional warfare. They changed their strategy to a more unconventional guerilla warfare which is hit and run tactics and ambushes. This strategy was put into great effect in Afghanistan when Soviet Forces invaded. Conventional warfare has been used on a smaller scale in the First Gulf War and the Iraq War. The modern day war in Afghanistan observes guerilla warfare as seen in Vietnam and Afghanistan decades earlier.

Guerrilla Warfare is a type of warfare that uses unconventional tactics like sabotage and ambush that mainly focus on harassment and a complete throw off of the enemies armies. For example, harassment of our troops in Afghanistan because of roadside bombs and ambushing our military forces is known as guerrilla warfare. Just take the term Guerrilla and know that this is the tactic that they use when fighting, ambushing and small battles that knock off armies after a while. If that is not easy enough, take the local events of the Iraq War and the 2003 invasion of Afghanistan and all of the Taliban and most Insurgents are using guerrilla warfare because they do not have the forces to beat us, making our huge army fear very small amounts of men compared to our army or even police forces.
The operational theme that is comprised of the principle activities of insurgency, counterinsurgency, and unconventional warfare is irregular warfare.
