POW Processing

I do reenacting out here in South California. We would like to do a POW scenario at a future event. Basically what occured from time of capture until POW was placed on transport to the POW camp. Would you happen to have any information, or a good web site that might indicate this? This for Confederate POW's captured by Yankees. Primarily looking at processing that might have been accomplished during the first half of 1864, on the Meridian/Red River Campaigns.

I am pretty sure I can come up with something, but it might include some 'guesses,' but would rather be more correct than not.

Any direction you can provide would be appreciated

PS - Yeah for those that know the name, I normally do Confederate, but we are working on a Yankee persona for events were additional Yanks are needed.
