Interviews from the International Military Pilgrimage that took place at the shrine of Our Lady of Lourdes in May 2019.

I’ve not come across anything like this before. It's mindblowing - a lot to take in - and it's going to take a while to comprehend what's happened this weekend." Able Seaman Thompson also discusses the role of chaplains and what it's like being a Catholic in the Navy.
