I don't know if I'll get around to watching this, but it seems like a fantastic story of human sacrifice and kindness.

"The Four Chaplains: Sacrifice at Sea"

The true story of four World War II U.S. Army chaplains who sacrificed their lives to save their comrades comes to life in "The Four Chaplains: Sacrifice at Sea," a prime-time television special that airs nationally on Wednesday, November 10, (10 p.m. ET/PT) on Hallmark Channel. The one-hour documentary recounts through dramatic military film footage, recreations, and personal interviews with survivors and family members how a Catholic priest, a Jewish rabbi, and two Protestant ministers removed their life jackets for others, and spent their last moments praying, arm-in-arm, as the U.S.A.T. Dorchester went down.
