What does a great Battalion Chaplain look like?

I'm a gung ho troop in an BN, when I got a new Chaplain. He asked me how to reach the troops. I said no matter what uniform the troops are in. Before you leave the truck be in that uniform. Work along side the lower ems before you see the officers. Work hard along side the EMs, bullshit first then seek out their needs. Always let BN HQ where you are, let the place your at know where you are going. It was a tall order, but he took my advice. We worked together for two years. He was accepted by all, loved by most. I'd say that he did a really great job adapted to the Army life. I heard years later he retired a Major.

Able to relate to officers and enlisted comfortably and with good system sense.

Chaplain Steve Hommel google him...nuff said.
