I guess that's the diplomatic way of looking at it.  I have a feeling my grandfather wouldn't have been so upset about it if he could have taken that stance.  Then again, I never knew my grandfather, so maybe he was of the "I helped him be a hero" mindset.

Yes, my grandfather made it back from WWII.  Now that I think of it he didn't have kids before that, so I suppose I could be fading out ala Back to the Future, if he hadn't.
