It is a privilege to write to you in the pages of the U.S. Army Chaplain Corps Journal as your Acting Regimental Sergeant Major. The Journal supports our ongoing work of elevating our Corps to ever higher levels of professionalization, and we are fortunate to have such a phenomenal resource.
Our Chief of Chaplains, Chaplain (Major General) Solhjem, has emphasized the importance of building on our Corps’ sacred legacy, even as we move out to support the Army, as it meets the challenges of an exceedingly complex and ever-changing operating environment. We do this most effectively by enthusiastically and energetically supporting one another each day in our Corps’ ongoing work, while simultaneously exploring how we can be better at what we do and better prepared to do anything we might be asked to do in the future. Reading and discussing the content in the Journal helps us to do that.
Our Corps “Cares for the Soul of the Army” by caring for every single member of the Army Family without exception all around the world. Our ability to do that is founded upon the strength of our teams, and on the commitment to service and to one another exemplified by our Chaplains, Religious Affairs Specialists, and Army Civilians. We help to build strong and ready Army teams by being a strong and ready Corps.
Pro Deo et Patria!
