Same here. Just because you wore the uniform, doesn't make you a "hero".

As someone who was raised by someone from the "Greatest Generation" and who has served in the Military for over 25 years. I have observed the the biggest difference between them and my generation, is a sense of entitlement. After they spent 4 continuous years away from home,they quietly packed away their uniforms and got on with life. Today everyone wants to write a book to show the world what they did, from the Generals to the lowest grunts. At some point the sense of honor of wearing the uniform, will outweigh the potential for personal gain.
