Frankly I will never understand why the Pentagon caved in on this issue.

You and me both.

To make an issue of it? I don't know.

Maybe the civilian GS workers made a call on this and not the military brass. I can imagine the ACLU trying to recall chaplains away from front line troops. I half hope that they would be so brazen to try that. And I hope the entire nation will know them because the ACLU exposes themselves for who they are: atheists that hate mankind.
