Chaplain? LOL

OH...it must be...by RANK!

Well Colonel, I see why you are inclined to post on FR sometimes as a member of the RCC might; they're big on Rank within the ranks...just like the Army.

It is actually regulation that US Army chaplains are not called by rank. Their rank is secondary to their ministry for their denomination. They’re to be called “Chaplain”. Not that they don’t have rank, and that it influences whether they’re a battalion, brigade, division, etc., chaplain.

But a higher ranking prayer is no better than a lower ranking prayer.
