I think to fight and die a heros death is the greatist way to go out.

I don't think I could possibly disagree with you more. Anyway, War isn't about dying, its about killing. Do you honestly think that you would be able to will destroy another human life, and still think yourself more morally right that that person. After all, at war, you and your enemy are both in the same boat really, being controlled from above.
Tolkien avoids this issue by making, as the person above said, the enemy very obviously evil, and not normally human.
