There is nothing illegal about ordering a Chaplain not to pray while in uniform.

I might be a little rusty on the UCMJ but I don't believe that anywhere in it does it forbid the free and open practise of religion in the military.

Please Correct me if I am wrong.

The same holds true for the U. S. Constitution.

You're conveniently forgetting "where" the Chaplain intended to wear his uniform.

The UCMJ forbids attending ANY political function in uniform. The fact that the chaplain also prayed while in attendance isn't even pertinent.
