Thanks for posting. There are some great chaplin stories out there. My church has a picture of every rector since the church was built. One of them is wearing the ribbon of his WWI Victory Medal.

That short read brings a tear to my eye.

Thank you for posting.

I used to work at Temple University and one of the buildings (the original building of the college) had been a Baptist church and there is a chapel in the basement dedicated to the Four Chaplains. The building was later turned into a performing arts center, but great care was taken to preserve the Chapel of the Four Chaplains. There is a very interesting stained glass window in the chapel.

The Pentagon Chapel used to have a commemorative stained glass window, too.
