Tyler “Tank” Thompson

Tank Thompson, born and raised in the Appalachian town of Amyville, is a young man shaped by hardship. At just 15 years old, Tank carries the weight of a troubled home life—neglected by his mother and scorned by her abusive boyfriend, Dave Miller. Behind his bullying is a boy struggling with self-worth, anger, and the lack of hope for a successful future. Through trials, humiliating defeats, and the prayers of an unknown mentor, Tank learns that true dignity comes not from being better than others but from humility and service.
