Seventy years ago, four men of God gave their lives to save those of others. The USAT Dorchester was filled to capacity with servicemen, including four chaplains, as well as merchant seamen and civilian workers, when it was struck by a torpedo from a German U-boat in February 1943 near Greenland. The chaplains — Rabbi Alexander D. Goode and the Revs.
