It sound to me that your husband must be a very very very brave man, a
man who has absolutely positively NOTHING to feel guilty about. In
fact the exact opposite is true, he has much to be proud of! The fact
that you are still married to the man makes me think you would agree
with me on this point. If nevertheless he tortures himself with guilt
then it follows logically that he must have judged himself
incorrectly, he has made the same error that Harry did. And yes, if
you kill an extraordinarily evil man I conclude that the appropriate
emotion to have is  pride, and obviously anything that action packed
is bound to be a thrill, it goes with the territory. 

No kidding, I admire the hell out of your husband!
