Policy Toward US POW's
Military Proselyting Doc, dated 26 Feb 63, prepared
by the Military Proselyting Sec of T [Mr IV], addressed
to subordinate Agencies, Canh [Sub-Region], and Military
Proselyting Cadre, criticizes the American Soldier's
moral weaknesses and contains directives regarding the
proper handling of American Pod's for propaganda
purposes as follows:
What American Soldiers fear most and causes them to
suffer most is separation from their loved ones,
sweethearts, wives, long absence from their fatherland,
and hardships on the battlefield. They usually like to
return to the USA before Christmas or before their
birthdays. They show fear when they first go to the
front lines to fight, before an attack [staged by their
own forces] or when preparing to oppose an attack, or
when liaison is cut off with the rear or friendly
[Allied] units.
The American serviceman like to read [VC] leaflets
that promise that American POW's would be well treated
and their lives would be secure.
Doc emphasizes that US POW's must be properly handled,
well fed, and made to write letters praising the lenient
policy of the"Front" towards US POW's, for international
propaganda purposes, and to encourage their fellow
countrymen to go back to the USA and stop committing
crimes against the [Vietnamese people]. If possible their
pictures must be taken, and declaration recorded prior to
their release. Personal belongings must be kept intact.
In regard to US POW's who die, they must be well buried,
their name, POB, date of death recorded, and personal
property secured to send back to their families.
