These ar are the Medals that the US military for serving under the UN Flag. I notice that the Korean war medal is missing. So the US has been under the UN Flag but because we are the one that do the most of the work it just seems that we are there by ourselfs.

We have and do serve in UN Missions, though not always under the UN Flag: Korea (UN), Haiti (UN), Kosovo (NATO). The United States provided 26% of the UN peacekeeping budget in 2006. Current deployments include the Balkans, East Timor, and the Sinai Peninsula.
Part of the problem is . As commander-in-chief, the President of the United States never gives up command authority over US troops. When large numbers of US troops are involved and when the risk of combat is high, operational control of US forces will remain in American hands, or in the hands of a trusted military ally such as a NATO member—though the US Department of State insists that the US must "allow temporary foreign operational control of US troops when it serves US interests."

Because the ideal of the UN is to spread peace and prosperity not militarization and coporate oppression.
