I know how insensitive this will be, but let's just play the devil's advocate:
most of the men who went to war DID NOT WANT TO GO but did because
they were forced to do so. Just because they fought does not make them
heroes. Yes, some soldiers did some pretty extraordinary things while they
were there, but most just went along and hoped for the best...

Again, this wasn't meant to bash anyone, but I felt it needed to be said:
just playing the devil's advocate...
