But I'll play. Duke was basically advising Falcon (all but ordering him) which way to go. He led them into the trap. Shouldn't Duke have known better? Maybe. Then, as you put it, HE surrendered and expected lawful treatment - FROM COBRA?!!! Shouldn't Duke have known better? Then he got the crap kicked out of him by Tommy Hilfiger and Ralph Lauren? Shouldn't Duke have fought better? And Duke lets the men under his command die while cowering in fear? And then he cries about it? Is this the man who won the Medal of Honor?
For the inability to effectively lead in battle, for inaction in the face of danger that lead to the death of most of their unit, Falcon and Duke should have been relieved of duty and possibly court-martialed. Not even Airborne could have lawyered them out of that one, my friend.
What always bothered me about that part was the Cobra reaction.
CC was worried that by killing the Joes in cold blood he'd anger the Joes? uhm.. So? Why would that worry him?
Tomax and Xamot not up to doing the killing themselves? That's out of character as well.
The Joes expecting to be treated like normal PoWs by Cobra? Huh???
Just to much of that didn't make sense.
