New Heroic Comics #72 is an anthology of true-life war and adventure stories. "He Chose to Fight" recounts Lt. Alexander Ramsey Ninninger's heroic actions during the Korean War with the 57th Philippine Scouts, where he single-handedly neutralized multiple Japanese snipers and helped Company K hold their position against overwhelming enemy forces on January 12, 1942. "Medal of Honor" details Ninninger's continued bravery as he moves through intense combat, eliminating threats and pressing forward despite being shot, ultimately breaking the Japanese advance. "Broken Glass" is a brief heroic true-life story about medical student Dean Shore witnessing a workman fall headfirst into a pile of broken glass at Jefferson Medical College in Philadelphia.
