In honor of the gallantry of these four Armed Forces Chaplains

  On February 3rd, 1943 four American chaplains of different faiths - Protestant, Jewish, and Catholic - each gave away their life preservers and their chances for survival when their ship, the USS Dorchester was mortally struck. The four chaplains went down together with the ship.

This is their story.
