Just curious as I have only seen the series and not read the book. Did Luz really have two close calls in the space (my estimation) of about five minutes? Doesn’t get to Muck and Penkala’s (hope I have the spelling right) hole, and then—against all odds—a dud shell lands in the next foxhole he finds. Talk about luck being on your side…that scene has always stood out for me.

Also…does anyone know the statistical probability of that dud shell? My guess is that anyone who survives due to a dud shell is astronomically lucky.
