WW1 is often forgotten about, because Hollywood loves WW2. Canadians held the front lines in a cloud of mustard gas when everyone else had run away. I'm going to agree with the general feeling here that any solider is the best soldier.
That being said... think about 2000 years ago when men stood toe to toe and hacked each other to death with sharp tools. There wasn't any casualty count below 100%, because if you lost the fight your troops were more than likely killed almost to the man. Those that weren't killed outright were made slaves or tortured for their religious beliefs. By comparison, war today is a civilized business.
