February 2022 marks the 79th anniversary of the heroic deaths of the Four Chaplains, ministers of different faiths and denominations who gave up their life vests to fellow soldiers on board the SS Dorchester as it sank in the North Atlantic after a German submarine torpedoed the troop transport ship with more than 900 aboard. In this edition of Catholic Military Life, the only official podcast of the Archdiocese for the Military Services, USA, Rev. Andrew Calandriello recounts the experience of that fateful night as told him by his father, who was on the Dorchester when mahem broke out, killing more than three of four on board.
