American Jews and their rabbis are not normally associated with warfare, but Jewish chaplains have played a significant and sometimes heroic role in defence of the nation. This history, written by one of their number who is in the US Navy, offers insights into their field-work, religious services, counselling and battlefield experience. It ranges from the Civil War to the first female Jewish chaplain and the rabbinic role in Korea, Vietnam and the Gulf War. In the course of providing a perspective on American religious history, the author refutes the belief that the US military has been a hostile place for Jews. The book incorporates documents which chronicle the care and concern by the Jewish community for their fellow Jews since the middle of the 19th century, including many new immigrants who joined the armed forces.
