The main concern of the US during the cold war was preventing a nuclear war (aka atomic war). The only two major wars during the cold war were Korea & Vietnam; Korea was close to going nuclear which had a lot to do with GEN MacArthur's removal from command in Korea. During the Vietnam War, the commander in chief went out of his way to avoid Soviet/Red Chinese casualties at Haiphong Harbor or SAM installation missile sites, etc. as well as NOT invading North Vietnam. These actions (policies) were taken by the US President to AVOID a nuclear confrontation with those super-powers.

The primary goals of the USA in WWII were to destroy the Nazis and restore decent government in Europe, plus they wanted peace. The other enemy of Japan had to be stopped from trying to take over the world and basically get revenge for bombing Pearl Harbor.

A key challenge was supplying the troops and the home front. Many Americans planted their own food and cut back eating meat and sugar so the troops would have food. Rubber tires and gasoline were rationed at home so it could be used in the war effort.
