When Yossi Vaknin, who was serving in Lebanon arrived to his home yesterday and started unpacking, he was stunned as he noticed a metal chunk sticking out of his Chitat(A thick book containing Chumash, Psalms(Tehillim) and the Chassidic text Tanya). "I opened the book and found a bullet just inside the Chitat", he exclaimed. Yossi was given this Chitat by his counsellor when he studied in a Chabad Institute in his youth. Just before his unit went on a difficult shooting mission in MarjAyoun, Lebanon, a Chabad soldier told him that he ought to place his Chitat within the flak jacket he was wearing rather than merely keep it among his belongings. Sure enough, this suggestion - placing the Chitat just across his heart - had saved him from being hit by the Hezbollah bullet".
