I enthusiastically recommend Father Mode's fine biography of Father Capodanno which was quoted in the article. In sacrificing his life for the Marines under his spiritual care, "The Grunt Padre" gave the motto "Semper Fidelis" its fullest meaning.

It's good to see this cause progressing! I remember reading an article about Father Capodanno some time back, maybe in the Knights of Columbus magazine.

Although I've never been in combat,or a combat zone,I have,for a long time,had enormous admiration for medics and chaplains who put themselves in harm's way simply,and solely,to aid and comfort the guys doing the fighting.

I salute all such chaplains and medics....along with the guys who fight and fight bravely!
