Could it be that the 9mm has proven it self as a viable pistol caliber longer then the .45acp.

No - it's still a glorified .38 Special with a lighter hardball slug - and the same round the Germans lost two wars in a row with. The army picked 9mm so they'd have a caliber young ladies could handle, not to actually kill anybody with..
