Report of the Defense Review Committee for the Code of Conduct
Abstract
The Committee arrived at a number of conclusions and recommendations. The most important of these appear in this report, with brief statements of Committee deliberations. These deliberations, conclusions, and recommendations are organized to present the two most important issues, revalidation of the Code of Conduct and change of specific words of the Code, and training required to support the Code, first. These issues are interrelated, and their resolution was closely tied to detailed consideration of other code issues: Command in PW organizations; Investigation of Violations of the UCMJ; The Legal Status of the Code of Conduct; Consistency of the Code of Conduct with the Geneva Conventions; Clarification of Policy Concerning Surrender; Escape; Disclosure of Information; and, Periodic Review of the Code.
