An NCO asked me if I’ve ever met a female Chaplain. I don’t think I ever had. Has anyone?

Nor me. But I can't see any reason there's not. They have more understanding of problems and feelings than men. There has to be.

Counter intuitively, yes, I've seen them. It's odd, considering the bible forbids women from speaking in church or attempting to teach men, but yeah, they exist...

Plenty! In fact, the USAF Chief of Chaplains from 2001-2004 was female. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorraine_K._Potter
