America has been invaded, actually.
First in 1812, by the British.
There were two more invasions by foreign armies in 1915 and 1916, but I'm not sure they count, since they weren't sovereign powers and were quickly dealt with.
But you're right, there is no living American who remembers an invasion of our territory.
