POWS are non playable characters in Metal Slug. They are half clothed and if you rescue them they give some weapons and items and sometimes they will help you. In Metal Slug 3 there is a POW who is a president in mission 2. In Metal Slug Advance instead of half clothed some are fully uniformed. In Metal Slug 5 Some POWs are executives. During the final mission of Metal Slug 6 the POWS are Mars People that are being contained within pods.
