While staffing one of the Navy awards, the Assistant Vice Chief of Naval Operations, Rear Admiral Raymond M. Walsh, explained that an internee of the Soviet Union was previously denied the POW Medal under the older version of 10 USC § 1128 “ because he was not a prisoner of an enemy of the United States .” However, he could now be considered for the medal because “ The 1989 change to the law permits the Secretary of the Navy to determine if the circumstances under which internee was held captive were ‘ comparable to those under which persons have generally been held captive by enemy armed forces during periods of armed conflict .’” While staffing the Air Force award, the Air Force Directorate of Personnel Services ( AFPC / DPS ) concluded that “ In 1989, Title 10, Section 1128, regarding Prisoner of War Medals changed and allowed Service secretaries to determine eligibility for the POW Medal for personnel held captive in countries not directly involved in armed conflict with the United States, provided the treatment of the prisoners was similar to the treatment received by prisoners held by enemy forces .” AFPC / DPS determined that the internees in Siberia met the statutory criteria because “ the conditions of this detainment were comparable, if not worse, than those experienced in Germany, and therefore, should be eligible for the POW Medal .” In 1996 and 2006 the USAF awarded POW Medals to USAAF T / Sgt Daniel Culler and Lt.

Instead of incorporating the 1989 amendment, the 1990 manual incorrectly repeated the 1988 policy almost verbatim, such that it required that " the POW Medal shall be issued only to those taken prisoner by an enemy during armed conflict ," and " hostages of terrorists and persons detained by governments with which the United States is not engaged actively in armed conflict are not eligible for the medal.
