Her attacker died and Stacy Lim died twice on the operating table. She required 101 pints of blood, but she survived
I love reading stuff like this. Sounds to me like she made the decision, well before this encounter, that she would not loose. Its not a fancy tactic or trick. Its just simple straightforward attitude.

Darned tootin'.

My attitude: "Even death is a poor excuse for not fighting back."

I just read about this in "On Combat." I was impressed then with her will to survive, and I still am.

It illustrates the mind is as important of a weapon as a firearm.

An old-timer who frequents my local range once told me "If I get killed in a gunfight, the coroner will have a hell of a hard time crawling through all the brass around my body."

Never go down without a fight is the mentality anybody should have.

Officer Lim, I salute you.
