Must admit my attitude to this is fairly uncompromising.
Would prefer that parachuting aircrew could be taken prisoner. Not particularly surprised they weren't.
Perhaps, during the Gulf War, when the enemy was clued-up and well-equipped to fight back, things were different. Now, dropping a bomb on someone you know lacks the technological means to respond and then running away at several hundred miles an hour is not bravery. It may be necessary, it may be a perfectly professional job of work, there may be nothing wrong with it, but if aircrew who have ejected wish to be treated gently they should probably not wear green, not carry weapons, and not train on how to run away.
