Enlisting Faith – How the Military Chaplaincy Shaped Religion and State in Modern America

By Ronit Y. Stahl ’02. Beginning at the outbreak of World War I, this book follows the development of religious pluralism in the military chaplaincy throughout the 20th century. The chaplaincy began with just Protestant and Catholic chaplains, and, through struggle and debate, expanded to include Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, Seventh Day Adventists, Christian Scientists, Hindus, and ministers of other faiths.
