'What gives them the right?' MAGA senator melts down over Muslims praying outdoors

14. What would Tuberville say about Father Emil Kapaun's "Jeep Mass" ?

As a Catholic and a military retiree, I have to ask, what would Senator Tuberville say about Father Emil Kapaun saying Mass on the hood of his Jeep?

He'd probably ask, "Who's that?"

Father Emil Kapaun was a US Army Catholic chaplain who served with our troops in Korea during the Korean War, saying Mass, pulling wounded and dead off the battlefield and staying with the troops when they were captured by the North Koreans. He died in a POW camp, a place where he stole food and water to save his troops.

There's a famous photo, at the link above, showing Father Kapaun saying Mass using the hood of an Army Jeep in Korea as an altar. Today, a "Jeep Mass" is often held in places around the US to commemorate Father Kapaun's life and actions.

Father Kapaun was awarded the Medal of Honor posthumously by President Obama on April 11, 2013.

Father Kapaun was declared "Venerable" by Pope Francis on February 24, 2025, putting him on the path to possible future canonization as a saint.

Again, I ask, what would Senator Tuberville say about Father Emil Kapaun saying Mass on the hood of his Jeep? After all, a Jeep's hood isn't a house of God like a church or a mosque!
