far diferantly. Western Prisoners captured during WW II by the Germans or Italians were generally treated fairly well according to the Geneva Conventions. As the war advanced and supplies got scarcer, treatment became worse. The Japanese purposely went out of their way to mistreat POWs. Watch the movie "Bridge on the River Kwai", The real treatment was much worse.
It is also a fact that the Japanese didn't surrender, they died en masse, because of their devotion to the Emporer. Very few of the Japanese forces surrendered & became prisoners. Sadly their treatment of Allied prisoners was unworthy of them. With regard to the Europen War I have just finished reading 'The Last Escape' by John Nichol & Tony Rennell about the repatriation of Allied prisoners at the end of WW2... Most enlightening.
