    I thought I knew everything about Doctor Antoine Depage and the history of Belgian nursing but once again, the lads have exposed some critical gaps in my knowledge.

    I confess I had never heard of Edith Cavell until listening to this. It has moved me to tears. I am astounded at her bravery and compassion

    @<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SmdnS_KNF3U&amp;t=3240">54:00</a> re: Father Damien... Father Damien was the Belgian priest who went to the Leper Colony in Hawaii, knowing full well that it would be a death sentence. Along with Fr. Maximilian Kolbe and Rev. Dietrich Bonhoeffer, one of my personal heroes regarding heroic sacrifice.

    For a terrifying few seconds I confused Antoine Depage with Angine de Poitrine.
