That is true. However, if they haven't been trained in POW procedures they really ought not to have any sort of power/supervision over them. Common sense would dictate that you just don't treat people like that.

Common sense would dictate you don't treat people like that, but one has to look no farther than the Risk Reduction forum to see people(probably a lot the same ages as some of these soldiers) doing similar things to pledges/brothers/sisters, etc.

in the end, the responsibilty lies with the officers. Regardless of the status of the soldiers, the officers either didn't do a good job instructing them of their mission or supervising it.
