This is the story of Charlie Plumb, but it is also the story of all the 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. " Plumb was shot down in May 19, 1967, during a combat mission over North Vietnam and was held captive for almost six years. Illustrated by Alta A
