In addition it violates the Geneva Conventions, of which the US is a signatory.

I don't think that is an issue at all. The Geneva convention protects the living.
The Geneva Convention Protocols protect living:
POWs, civilians, wounded fighters, medical and religious personnel

Exactly which article(s) in the Geneva Convention do you think were violated?

Sorry you were offended by the vagaries of close combat but in this instance I believe you are pissing in the wind.

PS Nothing about close combat is pretty…never was.
