Hi. I didn't know about the wound stripes. I know about one of his wounds from him being in a cave with his men. He swapped places with one soldier that wanted to be closer to the entrance, but he was unfortunately killed.
 
Yes things sometimes happen that way in life/war but as my wife always says "Everything happens for a reason"
