But didn't the Indians also butcher each other, enslave each other, and take each others lands as well?

This is idiotic. If anything public reverence of the military was as great or greater in the days of conscription compared to now. Also I think the lack of "war poets" can be better attributed to the fact that poetry as a whole is a less common form of expression for ordinary people today than it was in WW1.

You don't think an army where the soldiers choose to be soldiers, rather than people who were something else, might lead to less regret over the sacrifice, loss and evil that is war.
