Show Notes

Captain George Phillips, USMC (Ret.), was among U.S. Marines with Father Vincent Capodanno, MM, Servant of God, when the Navy Lieutenant chaplain was killed by enemy gunfire in Vietnam’s Quế Sơn Valley on Sept. 4, 1967. Capt. Phillips now serves as chairman for the Father Capodanno Guild, which is overseeing the Maryknoll priest's Cause for canonization. In this edition of Catholic Military Life, the only official podcast of the Archdiocese for the Military Services, USA, Capt. Phillips recounts the events of that fateful day, and explains what it was about Father Capodanno that qualifies him for sainthood.
