So folks surrendering at one point in time means that a) those particular soliders were cowards b) the soliders of that country are hence forth to be known as cowards c) all people of that country are cowards?

By your logic Americans are cowards, and American soliders on the Bataan Death March were cowards.

Um, no... People who surrender without a fight (like the french) are COWARDS... I am not remotely ashamed of the fact that american forces have had to surrender on an occassion or two in the past... Of course, we went back (during the same conflict) and kicked the shit out of whoever it was we had surrendered to... umm can the French say that??? DON'T THINK SO
