Can I get help with an "american empire" quote?

Somewhere the other day, maybe NPR, someone quoted a US general I think commenting on 'Nam something like "here ends the american empire and I think it's a good thing. We were never any good at it anyway." I can't find it online anywhere. Anyone familiar with this quote? Thanks.
