POWs were Prisoners of War. They did not require pardoning. You may be confusing them with deserters or draft resisters that were pardoned by Jimmy Carter.

What president defeated Vietnam War pow?

President Richard Nixon is often associated with the conclusion of the Vietnam War, as he initiated the policy of "Vietnamization," which aimed to reduce American involvement and transfer combat responsibilities to South Vietnamese forces. However, it was not a single president who "defeated" the POWs; rather, the war ended with the fall of Saigon in 1975, after Nixon had resigned in 1974. The last American POWs were released in 1973 following the Paris Peace Accords, which Nixon helped negotiate.
