You can call it whatever you choose, but you would still be wrong. Perhaps you just need to work on your English a bit. If both words meant the same thing, there would not be two different words with two different definitions in the dictionary you cited. Just because both are somewhat "positive" terms does not make them synonyms...duh
Risking ones life...or giving one's life as a soldier in the defense of family and nation are indeed noble. The fact that you do not see that is worrisome. If your other countrymen feel that way...you are doomed as a nation. Eventually there will come a time where you can neither buy-off an enemy and the US will choose not to help.
