An American chaplain's encounter with a Latter-day Saint soldier in France

During the Great War, an educated American chaplain serving in France visited a dying young soldier in a tent. Despite being told by a doctor that the boy would not survive, the soldier confidently insisted he would recover. The soldier later explained to the chaplain that he was a Latter-day Saint from Utah, had kept the commandments, and had received a specific witness that he would return home. This encounter initiated a deep interest in the Church that eventually led the chaplain to seek out Elders and convert to the faith.
