Noting that the North Vietnamese continued to insist that their treatment of American prisoners was lenient and humane, Bruce listed 13 articles of the 1949 Geneva Convention on war prisoners that he asserted had been violated by the other side. These articles include information on the persons held, of sick and repatriation wounded or those held for a long time, adequate medical attention and feeding, information on camp locations and of all neutral inspection camps.
