Army chaplains Alexander D. Goode, Jewish, George L. Fox, Methodist, Clark V. Poling, Reformed, and John P. Washington, Catholic, calmed the troops and gave their life jackets as the troop ship Dorchester sank from an enemy torpedo off Greenland on Feb. 3, 1943, during World War II. They died praying together, were awarded a special medal for heroism, and demonstrated unity of faith and sacrifice.
