Nunlist's strictness nearly cost him his life last April, when a discharged guardsman shot him in the neck and shoulder. Before he collapsed, the bleeding colonel disarmed his attacker, who was turned over to the Italian police (the Vatican City jail has been vacant for 20 years, is now used for storage).
