Description

This clipping appears in the World War II scrapbook. The title, "Chaplain Cited," refers to Captain Joseph T. Hogan, S. J., whose photo is included with the article. Father Hogan left Loyola for the Army. While in France, under artillery fire, he ignored the shelling and rescued an injured soldier, "gave spiritual comfort, and then helped evacuate him to safety." He then only went to safety after making sure no one else was left behind. "The Army awarded the Bronze Star Medal to Chaplain Hogan."
