U.S. Army Chaplain (Lt.) George Fox personified the ideals of a military chaplain: love, leadership and sacrifice. On the night of Feb. 3, 1943, a German torpedo struck the U.S. Army Transport Ship Dorchester. Fox, and three other chaplains onboard, calmed panicked men, gave their life vests to men without them, helped men into the lifeboats and then remained on the sinking ship, praying for their fellow soldiers’ safety.
