[Faith-talk] Blind chaplins

[Weingartner, Paul]

 Military Chaplains have to go though all of the same physical
requirements and training as other soldiers do.  On top of that, they
have to have a recognized ordination and a masters degree.  The
Assemblies of God have many chaplains.  I get to meet a number of them
and some are my friends.  The older ones sometimes have a hard time
getting back in shape after the years of schooling.  Although, with the
shortage of new recruits, they have been relaxing a bit on the
requirements.

Hi all,
I'm wondering if any of you know of any blind chaplins in the military.
Also, do you know if there are any sight requirements for such a
position.

Thanks,
Kathy
