Army Magnanimity

I wonder if there is another army on earth as magnanimous to its opponents as the US Army. We have forts named after vanquished generals of the other side (Lee, Jackson, AP Hill to name a few--and yes, these were in fact enemies of the US Army), I drove on "Geronimo Avenue" on the base here, and the suite I'm staying in is the Quannah Parker Suite--the last warring Comanche Chief.
