This picture is very poignant to me. This is how my Dad attended Mass when he was in the Pacific during WWII.

It is a beautiful photo that demonstrates the lengths to which our Church will go to provide the Sacraments to those serving in the amphitheater of war. I don't think it compares with a backyard mass on a picnic table next to a barbeque.

My Dad was there too!

And, since he was a navy photographer, i grew up with a box of pictures just like that.
