Veterans Day

Happy Belated Veteran Day!!! Today I want to share with you some Catholic books written about and by Catholic military me. The first two I have written about before. When Hell was in Session by Admiral Jeremiah Denton tells about his experience as a POW for over 7 years during the Vietnam War and how his faith got him through it. The second is, The Shadow of His Wings: The True Story of Fr. Gereon Goldmann, OFM by Fr. Gereon Goldmann a seminarian was drafted into the SS during WWII. There is also The Grunt Padre: Father Vincent Robert Capodanno, Vietnam, 1966-1967 by Fr. Daniel L. Mode, I have not yet read this book but I plan to eventually.

    I would also share a link to a few of my favorite songs about soldiers.
      If Your're Reading This by Tim Mcgraw  It's about a letter written in case of death, a tear jerker.
      Highway of Heroes by The Trews A song in memorial to Canadian soldiers and referencing a HWY named in honor of Canadian soldiers.
     Letters from War Mark Shultz a song set against the backdrop of WWII


                Thanks to all those who have given and continue to give their lives for our freedom.
                                                        God bless you, Nina
