So you must think that the nazis who took orders to put millions of people into ovens were just "taking orders". ya those nazis were sure the ones making the sacrifice.

When you join the military (doesn't matter what country) you are saying that you are willing to do what the country (represented by the government of that country, which in my case is "we, the people") says must be done and place it as a higher priority then your own wants and beliefes.
So, yes, when you are serving "the many" it is not only ok but expected that you will do things that you do not personally believe are the right thing to do, because you are ordered to.
