Remembering Heroic Catholic Chaplains on Memorial Day

"Acts of valor. Supernatural faith in the face of death.

"Five Catholic chaplains have received the nation's highest military award - the Medal of Honor. Two of them also have their causes for sainthood underway.

"As Memorial Day is solemnly marked across the United States May 28, the Register remembers these heroic chaplains, recalling their remarkable bravery and their courageous response to the needs of their fellow men in war."

In a recent article, National Catholic Register staff writer Joseph Pronechen briefly profiled these five chaplains: Fathers Joseph O'Callahan, Vincent Capodanno, Charles Watters, Angelo Liteky, and Emil Kapaun.
