I was on assignment to write a story and shoot some photos of the Gettysburg battlefield, as I was being giving a tour of it by a park ranger he was telling of all the casualties on both sides, it was hard to imagine the destruction in such a beautiful, tranquil setting, and I told him so. His response was for me to open my hand and when I did he dropped this into it saying, "Many bullets missed, this one did not." Suddenly it was no longer just a park.
