The function of the chaplain is to guard the First Amendment Rights of the soldier

No - the function of the chaplain is to either "perform or provide religious support" to all members of the military, the families, retirees, and civilian employees. I know - I wrote the Religious Support Manual for the Army that was published in 1993-4 time frame

Sounds more like the job description of a recreation officer. Of course, many judges have forgotten the meaning of the term" free exercise of religion."
