Yeah man, it sounds odd.

I no nothing of what appropriate conduct is in that situation.

All I hear in the movies is that a soldier never relinquishes his firearm.

But i’m not gonna go by what a movie says when we have military folks on this board.

They seem, however, to not be thrilled that the arms were surrendered.

Perhaps they were already made to understand that there was to be NO trouble if possible, if a situation like this happened.

I dunno.

Same here, I did not serve but my strong self preservation circuit would have a real hard time being disarmed in a confrontation.

I don’t think that I would have acted in similar manner. Our soldiers were/are way more calm and assured than I could ever be in a situation and I respect that.
