No, it is how it is fighting tribalized people. The only captives Afghans took in the retreat from Kabul were a few they thought had value for ransom for the brit and Indian units were killed to the last man, no quarter asked or expected. Same in the Sudan and Somalia. The only survivors of Plunkett’s command (bigger than Custer’s) were some Indian NCO’s who got away while the Mad Mullah’s people were distracted collecting loot and stripping bodies for worthwhile items and specie.

So Indians can’t massacre because they are Indians, I never dreamed I would run into that idea.
