Man, how unlucky do you have to be to get hit with 2 A-bomb. On the side note, you would imagine that all transportation would come to a haul when it get hit by an A-bomb. How did he manage to travel 190 miles (back in the 40's) with serious burn to his body, and when all activities besides life saving are pretty much to a halt.....all in 3 days.
