Alkemade's life seems to have bee forged out of hi-tensile luck!
Captured by the Japanese after the fall of Bataan, Lester Tenney was one of the very few who would survive the legendary Death March and three and a half years in Japanese prison camps. With an understanding of human nature, a sense of humor, sharp thinking, and fierce determination, Tenney endured the rest of the war as a slave laborer in Japanese prison camps. His is an inspiring survivor's epic about the triumph of human will despite unimaginable human suffering.

Yes- some sage once remarked, "given a choice between luck and skill, I will take luck anytime!"
Let me share this video.
