Well, not sure if I agree with you, mainly because you word this very terribly.
I'd agree that it is quite annoying that absolutely EVERYONE in the military/navy/whatever gets automatic hero status. I have a friend who is a trumpeter for the Canadian Navy, and has never really done anything that puts him above anyone, yet he is constantly put on a pedestal.
That being said, a very large amount of people in the forces actually do go beyond what most people will for their country, and do deserve thanks, and sometimes, even hero status.
