Four Chaplains Day honors the four chaplains aboard the SS Dorchester during WWII. The Dorchester, a troop ship carrying approximately 900, was struck by a German U-boat on February 3, 1943. The 4 Chaplains were a Methodist minister, Reformed Church minister, a Rabbi, and a Catholic Priest. After handing out out all of the remaining life jackets to the soldiers and helping them board the lifeboats, the 4 chaplains linked arms, sang hymns, and said prayers as they went down with the ship. May they rest in peace.
