Britain didn't lose World War 2, at least to my knowledge, which would make that conclusion complete nonsense.

"hence my confusion"

It might be 'perfectly alright' for someone who is brought up with the American Revolution as compulsory reading, but for me, I had no idea what Bunny was talking about.

As I said, outside of America, "the war" refers to World War II. I was not aware that in America, or possibly Britain (although I doubt it), "the war" would refer to anything different, regardless of context.

EDIT: Unless it was a Vietnam war vet talking in a stereotypical way about "the war". Although they'd probably refer to it as "'nam" rather than "the war".
