I think any job in which you may be asked to lay your life on the line for the life of another regardless of who they are is a higher calling. Whether you rescue people from avalanche, fire, accident, or war you are serving your fellow man. Some jobs require more from a person than other jobs do but that doesn't always make them more honerable. As other's mentioned I think it's more the level of sacrifice required.
