A few days ago at the official website for The Emperor Karl League of Prayer, I came across something I’d like to share with you, my readers, as we approach the feast day of Blessed Emperor Karl. As you probably all know by now, the saintly Emperor has been a huge influence in my life, and I have been praying annually for his canonization. So it is with great pleasure that I present to you a brilliant recounting of an important day for the Imperial-Royal soldiers on the Italian Front, written by author Christopher Reibold. The story itself is based on a true event in Blessed Karl’s life, attested to in the biographies prepared for his beatification. So please enjoy it over there at the League of Prayer website:
