    Uploaded by

    Mark Cheney
    The Code of Conduct outlines 6 articles that American service members must follow if captured, including never surrendering willingly, continuing to resist the enemy through all means, keeping faith with fellow prisoners, only providing name, rank, and service number if questioned, and never forgetting that they are American and dedicated to American principles. The DOD directive provides guidance for peacetime captivity and clarifies that the Code still applies but with some modifications. It instructs service members to remain calm if captured and avoid resisting, while still resisting exploitation.
