If it is okay for the US to kill survivors, does that mean its okay to execute wounded US soldiers found on a battlefield or POWs?

The Law of War prohibition against killing those who are "hors combat" (out of action) protects the lives of Americans. If we violate that law, we can't complain when others do the same.

It is in our interest for the US to respect and follow the Laws of War.

Killing of survivors sparks outrage – but entire US ‘drug boat’ war is legally shaky

Pentagon’s Law of War manual clearly prohibits attack, but justification for whole campaign also faces tough questions
