Default Is torture ever acceptable?

Suppose we captured an enemy soldier who told interrogators that he knew where three American soldiers were being held and the three soldiers would be killed within 24 hours.

What level of torture, if any, would you find acceptable to enable the interrogators to find the soldiers?
