Religion

I have seen the good that chaplains do for soldiers who are away from home, or are hurting, or just need to talk to someone. On the other hand, the US military must remain neutral on religion. The result is that if there are military people of sufficient numbers of any religion, there ought to me chaplains of that religion. If there aren't chaplains, military folks must be allowed to practice their religion as best they can.

I recall a long conversation with a commanding general about why he had to accommodate a request for a place for Wiccan services. He just couldn't quit saying "witches." It took awhile, but I finally made him understand not only that he had to accommodate the request but that he should.
