Reply #23: Wounded soldiers are still legit targets.

Until they surrender or are positively ID'd as unable to resist, i.e. captured. After that they are entitled to the same medical treatment that the captors have available for themselves. And while it might be possible to let an opponent recover his wounded in a set-piece battle, it doesn't happen in an urban fight like this. I can't think of anyone allowing for the recovery of wounded on a battlefield since WWII, matter of fact.

It just makes sense. A guy lying out in the street might have a flesh wound or concussion injury and if he's let go he might be back up with a rifle in 20 minutes. Taking that risk in the name of chivalry could very well get you or your buddies killed.

Edit for typo.
