| Optio | I heard something similar, and it was a joke, from some TV show. Similar situation. Soldiers sitting about, chewing the fat. One mentions about how one of his platoon mates had always carried a bible in his left breast pocket, and one day, he got hit by a round. Wonder of wonders! The bullet hadn't hurt him, but buried itself deep in the book. A bullet, stopped by the Gospel! A miracle! Too bad about the other two rounds he took in the head, though.
