14-year-old Italian seminarian Rolando Rivi was abducted by Communists, who stripped him of his cassock, beat him and imprisoned him in a pigpen.

"Tomorrow, one less priest," one of the Communists threatened.

The next day, April 13, 1945, Rolando was led to a shallow grave and forced to kneel at its edge, where he requested, "Allow me the time to say a prayer for my father and mother," seconds before he was shot once in the left temple and once in the heart.

VIVA CRISTO REY!
