Emil Kapaun: priest, soldier and Korean War hero. He has been awarded the Medal of Honor, the nation's highest military award, and is also being considered by the Vatican for canonization as a saint. Under the unbelievably brutal conditions of a prisoner of war camp, survivors say, no matter their religion Father Kapaun did more to save lives and maintain morale than any other man they know.
