Was there any military unit that actually never surrended? I only know about ''victory or death'' triariis.

I'm sure there's been thousands of squads or fireteams that never surrendered.

There's plenty of stories of heroism like that in the pockets of Stalingrad. For every unit who surrendered, there was another that fought to the last man.

A short life in Siberia or a bullet to the back of the head tend to be pretty good motivators for continuing the fight.

Well yeah I'm not saying that wasn't what motivated them. But the propaganda definitely added to the fanaticism.

Other than that, the 300 Spartans is an obvious example, although they died to ensure the Greeks made it out of there.

Actually only 299 died because there was one messenger who did the marathon run.

Not sure if bait or incredibly stupid.

>>1535090
There were about 7000 Greeks there, not just 300 Spartans (and even that number is inaccurate because of the Helots).
