How were POWs treated in World War 2?

From all I have read, which is extensive, it depends who you are and who you were fighting. US prisoners were relatively well treated as were Germans taken by the US. Exceptions were the German massacre of US prisoners in Malmady, battle of the bulge in 1944-45. The massacre of the Polish officers @ The Katyn Forest in 1940 by the Soviets, long blamed on the Nazis. Prisoners taken by Nazis on the Russian front were treated horribly if they were taken as were German prisoners captured by the Russians. About 5,000 Germans came back to Germany at war's end out of 500,000 taken Japanese were brutal in their treatment of all allied prisoners.
