Wow I guess I'm the first one to post
This show was so powerful, both visually and emotionally.
...love, peace and chicken grease!
Tough stuff, god bless our troops.

Chaplin's are like the military version of therapists with religious training, they are just there to help you with any grief or emotional problems you might be having.
I am a soldier and I am an athiest and if I were in that position, where I was wounded or on my deathbed, I would not want the Chaplin to say a prayer for me, but I would appreciate his company. I would only ask he say something nice and tell me family what happened to me.
such a meaningless war. Al Queda are *beep* n00bs!
shareAll soldiers wear ID tags (AKA "Dog Tags") that specify religion. The Chaplains in the military will bend over backwards to accomodate this. Chaplains do have rank but are in one of the jobs in the Army where they have rakn but don't wear their rank in a figurative sense. If you told one to "get lost" he'd respect you more than you're respecting him and leave even if you were the lowest private. Trust me, I've been a soldier for over 18 years, done 3 tours in Iraq, and I'm also a doc who has worked in the "Baghdad ER". It's now the 10th CSH since it changes names when a new unit occupies it. More on topic, this is a great movie.
shareJust one thing : why is it that each and every soldier in the show was grossly overweight ? Only the docs, locals and higher ranks looked fit for military service.
shareThey feed us pretty well over here. The Soldiers may look overweight to you but they're huge and go to the gym a lot. You don't want to go up against these guys, trust me. They're in shape for what they do.
