The Army Chaplain

Remembrance Day Talk

Available for over a year

A former army chaplain reflects on war, fallen comrades, and the terrible job of breaking the news to families of the death of a loved one. "The pain on a woman's face as she struggles to grasp that her man is dead, look on her face, ought to be a permanent reminder that war is not glorious and that peace is precious."
