Do you feel that Military Chaplains add Value? Why? Do you have personal stoies to share about how a Chaplain helped you and/or your Family or someone else?
"Military chaplains have long been a source of comfort and inspiration for the men and women of the armed services — perhaps never more so than in times of war. Service members who are deployed experience stress not only from combat, but also from environmental hardships and separation from family and friends. Having a chaplain to confide in can help service members better cope with these pressures"

I would have to say YES without a doubt. My chaplain, Jonathan Gibbs (3rd BN 504th PIR, 82d Airborne) was a resource for one reason. He loved the men and their families. I saw Chaplain Gibbs go above and beyond on many occasions, to make sure a junior enlisted was cared for. At the same time, he called it like he saw it...stupid was stupid, and lazy did not ever get a pass from him.

My personal opinion is that Faith plays a big role in your attitude and salvation while in combat. Chaplains provide the comfort and understanding needed to continue the fight. They are your spiritual support!

During a time when you lose a family member in Combat you need that support to know that you're not alone . The military never leaves behind anyone
