Approx 600,000 died in the War Between the States if the number of deaths is what determines the Greatest. Incidentally Most of these were volunteers. In WWII there were also many volunteers, but many were there because they were drafted. As I said I am not trying to dishonor anyone who has served their country, am just not ready to pick "ONE" generation & say it is "Greater" than all the rest.
I had two great Grandfathers who fought for the confederacy, I hold them in just as high Honor as I do my family members who fought in WWII, they all fought for what they believed in.
