	Rules of Prize Warfare - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Rules of Prize Warfare defines a set of rules for taking vessels during war that were originally laid down in the days of sailing ships.
		Some of the rules state that: passenger ships may not be sunk; crews of merchant ships must be placed in safety before their ships may be sunk (life boats are not considered a place of safety unless close to land); only warships may be sunk without warning.
		All sides signed treaties subscribing to Rules of Prize Warfare before World War I and they were in effect during World War II but all sides ignored them in both wars.

	NAVAL WARFARE PUBLICATION
		The increasing emphasis in modern warfare on seeking to isolate completely the enemy from outside assistance and resources by targeting enemy merchant vessels as well as warships, and on interdicting all neutral commerce with the enemy, is not furthered substantially by blockades established in strict conformity with the traditional rules.
		Prize procedure is not used for captured enemy warships and naval auxiliaries because their ownership vests immediately in the captor's government by the fact of capture.
