Here's something from the NY Times I thought interesting; " Our humanity has been compromised by those who use Gestapo tactics in our war. The longer we stand idly by while they do so, the more we resemble those 'good Germans' who professed ignorance of their own Gestapo. It's up to us to wake up our somnambulant Congress to challenge administratiion policy every day. Let the war's last supporters filibuster all night if they want to. There is nothing left to lose except whatever remains of our country's good name" ...
A Henry Kolm, an M.I.T. physicist whose interrogation of Rudolf Hess, Hitler's deputy, took place over a chessboard ... he said that "we got more information out of a German general with a game of chess or Ping Pong than they do today with their torture ..." Other examples were given from a elite group of two dozen World War II veterans who participated in a top secret operations to interrogate some 4,000 Nazi prisoners of war.
As a veteran of the Korean War, I incline to agree with these judgements & would appreciate comments from others.
