"You are only a plennie" Wilhelm Max Rose was born in April 1905 in Patschkau, Silesia, Germany. Before World War 2 he studied Theology, married Charlotte and they had five children. Early in the war he volunteered as a combatant. In 1945 when a Captain Adjutant, he was captured in Konigsberg [East Prussia] and became a 'plennie' - a prisoner of war in Stalin's Soviet Russia - until 1953. This is his personal graphic account of imprisonment written by him in the 1960s. His grandfather was named Schmitt and he uses his name in these memoirs.
