in "the iron coffins" you can find a short story about a shipman who shot in his head but the bullet damaged only the eye nerves. In blair's hitler uboat war u have an example of a uboat captain who shot through his mouth but the bullet missed that upper part of the spine so he had only his throat badly injured. there are plenty of photos on the net where u can see the guy who used his shotgun and/but survived. So...yeah...they were kinda lucky. 2bad JFK didn't have so much luck, qq.
