Best Answer

If you are asking about colonial prisoners held by the British they were treated in many terrible ways. Ships were made into floating prisons where men died and were buried in mass graves off the coast of NY. Some were shipped back to stand trial in England while others were hung after they were taken.Young boys were forced to work for the British officers. The British treated any colonial POWS with harsh beatings, starvation, and death.

How did the treatment of Australian prisoners of war compare to the treatment of prisoners of war held in Australia?

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.

How did Prisoners of war Post get to their families during World War 2 without the planes or ships being destroyed?

Generally it was transported to & fro (In Europe at least) by the Red Cross. This applies to British & US forces. The Red Cross did much to ensure the safety and survival of hundreds & thousands of prisoners. There is then a vast contrast between on one hand the treatment of German & Italian prisoners held by the Allies & the Russian prisoners of the Nazis and the German prisoners of the Russians & similarly the Japanese Allied prisoners: The conditions were appalling. There were very few Japanese prisoners: Surrender wasn't an option.
