A Sacred Honor: Navy Expanding Chaplain Corps to Better Care for Men and Women Who Serve
For the first time since the Cold War, the Navy is expanding its Chaplain Corps. This year alone, the goal is to fill 70 active duty slots, a number that would place one chaplain on every U.S. Navy destroyer.
“A lot of the bad behaviors, the evidences of stress, are reduced on ships or in units that have chaplains,” Rear Adm. Gregory Todd told CBN News.
Todd serves as the Navy’s Chief of Chaplains, a position that also covers the Marine Corps and Coast Guard. Over the course of his career, he’s worked as a chaplain in all three branches, responding to Ground Zero after 9/11, and deploying to both Iraq and Afghanistan.
“The funny thing about being a chaplain is the most satisfying moments are in some of the most challenging times because you’re there to bring God into that situation,” Todd said.
