EPW Team – Matthew Luke Publishing

Enemy Prisoner of War (EPW) Teams play a critical role in military operations, ensuring the humane treatment, processing, and security of captured individuals. Their work is vital not only for operational success but also for adherence to international laws and ethical standards.

An EPW Team is responsible for managing the capture, custody, and documentation of enemy prisoners of war. Their duties are governed by the Geneva Conventions, emphasizing respect for the rights and dignity of detainees while prioritizing mission objectives.

U.S. Army Reserve military police Soldiers from various units across the United States integrated their efforts to train on detention operations and combat support tasks during a Combat Support Training Exercise cycle at Fort Hunter Liggett, California, during the month of May, 2019.
