If you have never become a prisoner of war, you are very lucky. Prisoners of war during World War II (1939 - 1945) were treated poorly, with no respect or consideration, and their living conditions were worse than animals. This is a very bad situation, no one can survive

Prisoners of war are products of every war. By the end of World War II, hundreds of thousands of soldiers, pilots and seafarers were detained at every battlefield of war such as Western Europe, Eastern Europe, Far East, Asia, and North Africa. While it is always difficult for all people involved in World War II to accept documents created in Switzerland during world peace, there is a rule stipulating the treatment of prisoners of war (the "Geneva Convention").

In the past, many atrocities have been done on prisoners, especially prisoners of war. Herophilus of Chalcedon was active among the prisoners of King Ptolemy. During World War II, prisoner abuse peaked from the Nazi chemical warfare experiment to the Japanese experiment for Chinese prisoners. Even after the Second World War, the syphilis experiment of Guatemala was conducted by the United States from 1946 to 1948. And it included prisoners, prostitutes, soldiers and psychiatric patients. After the Nuremberg trial, the German experimenter was punished, the Nuremberg law introduced to informed consent and was established to avoid compulsion. Later, many countries enacted their own rules to protect prisoners from such atrocities.
