I do not think that a soldier should be prosecuted for this and I am surprised that a military court would convict him.

I'm not. Where do these military lawyers get their law degrees? All from West Point? Or mostly from civilian law schools AKA Leftist Indoctrination Centers?

The law of war declares that we are to "collect and care for wounded, friend or foe."

No, what he did in this case is clearly counter to regulations. While this has happened in the past it was against military law then. There were some courts martials during WWII for reported incidents.
