I disagree with the assessment that Bolvar was revived by the power of the red dragonflight breath, but not with certainty. I think that Bolvar died and was revived in undeath alongside Saurfang. You can overhear Alexstrazsa and her consort discussing a secret they know immediately after the Wrathgate. This could either be that the Lich King has stolen the bodies, or possibly that Bolvar is still alive.

Instructor Razuvious must revive Death Knight prospectives in Archerus before bending them to the will of the Lich King or discarding them. Some revived showed original loyalties, and he simply didn't waste his time breaking them. Obviously the Lich King would devote his time to bending such powerful figures as Bolvar and Saurfang the Younger. Yet, Saurfang crumbled, likely due to youth and inexperience.

Thus, Bolvar is undead, and beyond redemption in his own eyes when Fordring hands him the helmet. This is why he wants to be forgotten.

My thinking is that Alexstraza knew that he was alive -- and she knew what her breath did to the poor guy. But it's all speculation anyway!

Poor Young Saurfang! He could have been so awesome! I hope Saurfang had a backup kid, I felt so bad that I let him get killed after Saurfang told me to look out for him. :(
