1914-1945.  Also 1787-1815 (Napoleonics), the earlier part of the
1700's (Austrian or Spanish Succession? don't recall without looking
it up), and 1618-1648 (Thirty Years War).  All in all, that part of
the century doesn't seem like a good time to go into harm's way.

Did I mention that, according to military white papers published by
the PRChina, they expect a war with the US "in the next few years"?  I
recall 2008 being mentioned.
