Re: Shooting pilots in their parachutes
Perhaps the question that needs to be asked at this time is what did the Geneva Conventions(of that time period) say, if anything, about shooting "distressed airmen?" I beleive the current conventions say that you can not shoot an airmen bailing out of an aircraft. Paratroopers are fair game.
