Chaplain Klingenschmitt

[arrowsmith]

Two weeks after the public outrage caused by the Navy's persecution of my faith, Congress forced the Navy and Air Force to rescind their recent policies requiring "non-sectarian" prayers,
NOW ALL MILITARY CHAPLAINS ARE FREE AGAIN TO PRAY PUBLICLY "IN JESUS NAME.
Congress took decisive action in the 2007 Defense Authorization Act (Conference Report): "The conferees further direct that the Secretary of the Navy rescind Secretary of the Navy instruction 1730.7C dated February 21st 2006, titled 'Religious Ministry Within the Department of the Navy."

That's the same policy we've been fighting all along, which banned praying publicly in Jesus name! That's how your petition signatures have changed national policy, and restored religious liberty.
The Navy is now trying to kick me out, because I lost at court-martial, still enforcing that same (rescinded) policy against me personally, refusing to "grandfather" the new policy change back to my case. So I've sued them in federal court, to prevent my termination. But if these "Navy prayer police" succeed, I'll forfeit my $1.8 million pension. Mary and I will soon be evicted from military housing, and we'll never see a dime of our retirement benefits, after 15.5 years of award-winning military service.
