A bullet between the eyes: The most remarkable survivor of the Civil War
There are many incredible war stories of survival that defy all logic or explanation. Jacob Miller’s survival was nothing short of miraculous.
Miller, a native of Logansport, served in Company K of the 9th Indiana Infantry during the Civil War. In one of his numerous battles, Miller was struck squarely in the forehead with a bullet, which tore a jagged hole and entered his brain, allowing doctors to view the pulsations of his brain. The wound never healed.
Miller relayed his story and personal experiences in an interview he gave to a Joliet, Illinois, newspaper in 1911.
