0:00
Knights of Columbus have served on the front lines of every war fought by the United States since the Order’s founding in 1882. There is a natural affinity between the virtues of military service and the Knights’ principles, and the Order has never wavered in its support for the armed forces. This legacy is explored in a new 40-minute documentary, Armed with the Faith: The Knights of Columbus and the Military.
