'I'm No Hero' is the story of Charlie Plumb, but it is also the story of all POWs who faced an isolated world of degradation, loneliness, tedium, hunger, and pain. It is no pretty story. It tells of the torture room with walls built to muffle human screams, of the 'rope trick' and 'fanbelt' techniques designed to make a man talk, of illness, of insanity. But it also tells of the ingenuity and creativity which allowed the men to outsmart their guards and to set up communication systems, classes, escape plans, and to maintain their chain of command. It is a revealing story. It pictures men who are reduced to the basics physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. It shows how these situations can be survived with individual integrity and pride intact. It tells of growing relationships with God which came as a result of desperate need. It outlines a closed society's methods of developing rules which allow members to live together in harmony. It is a story of hope, for it suggests that the techniques used by POWs to survive their conditions can be used by others to overcome similar situations faced in day-to-day living.

I’m No Hero: Story of a WWII Soldier By: Steven E. Weick Growing up, Steven E. Weick heard very short snippets of his father’s time in World War II. But like many veterans, his father never talked much about his harrowing experiences. After graduating high school and joining the Air Force, Weick’s father decided it was time to share with his son more in-depth the journey, small joys, and traumatizing moments from his time in the trenches of WWII. After his father’s passing in 2012, Weick dove into more research about his father’s unit and scoured through thousands of morning reports, battle narratives, causality reports, after-action reports, and company rosters, resulting in I’m No Hero: Story of a WWII Soldier, a retelling of his father’s experiences in WWII along with historical records to show the everyday life of one solider fighting in one of bloodiest wars in our nation’s, and the world’s, history.
