this is an interesting part about all this and the overblown issue of "torture" - there is continually less and less incentive to capture someone on the battlefield and take them somewhere to be interrogated vs just putting a 9mm round through each knee cap and get what info you need and then putting a round in their head to avoid all the unpleasant headaches of actually taking them into custody.
