It is still true that your father fought in WWII because of an attack which took fewer lives than 911. It is also true that he did so despite FDR locking up all the Japanese-ancestry citizens on the west coast without even being charged with a crime.

I may have been wrong about your father not feeling as you do. All you posted about him was that he fought in the Pacific to protect our way of life. Based on your reply, one sees that was an incomplete picture.

Perhaps your father regretted his service. I hope not. He did the right thing. Just as we did in response to 911.

The additional information you've supplied sheds a little light on how your personality (at least as it has been displayed on SI) has been formed. If you suffered abuse or neglect in your childhood you should give serious consideration to getting emotional counseling. Things can be passed on generation to generation. But they don't need to be.
