This ANZAC Day, we have gone to a little extra effort to mark the Centenary of the Gallipoli Campaign of WWI. We present to you here a story that is often overlooked in our mainstream histories and national rituals; the story of Catholic military chaplains. These men worked tirelessly for the material and spiritual well being of our soldiers and continue to do so today. Featuring an exclusive interview with Military Chaplain Fr Bryan Pipins SJ, a brief history of Australian Military Chaplains and a profile of ANZAC Chaplain, Fr John Fahey.
