Talk:Chaplain Corps (United States Army)

Notable Chaplains - notable only for military service?
Chaim Potok was a chaplain during the Korean War. Is that appropriate for notable chaplains, or do you think this is only for chaplains who were notable for their service, not notable in general?QuilaBird (talk) 21:19, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

Notable Chaplains
It seems to me that the "See also" section is in danger of becoming a crowded mixture of "Notable Chaplains" and "Related topics". I propose to create a new section entitled Other Notable Chaplains (just after the Four Chaplains) and leave the "See also" for related topics. Any objections? I'll give this a few days and will then proceed, unless I hear objections ....

Chaplain Corps symbols
I wanted to alert interested wikipedians of the new article I created, United States military chaplain symbols. It is missing graphics for two old versions of the Army Chaplain Corps Seal (the one with Jewish and Christian symbols, and the one with those two symbols plus the Muslim symbol), plus older version/s of the Chaplain Corps regimental insignia. The Director of the Army Chaplain Museum is going to scan these images and email them to me because she does not have them in digital form. If anyone has them in a digital format I would appreciate your uploading them and letting me know, to save the Museum Director the trouble. Thanks - NearTheZoo (talk) 13:09, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

Mexican American War U.S. Army Chaplains
No disrespect intended to either of the Roman Catholic chaplains mentioned, as they were selected by President Polk, and did serve in the war in Mexico. However, they were not official U.S. Army Chaplains, as stipulated by a new law at that time. There were 13 of those appointed for brigades, and administratively approved by brigade officers. Twelve of those were stationed at Forts around the United States. Only one went to the front, John D. McCarty. He served with General Scott's army, and was famous amongst the troops for his compassion and bravery during battles. There is a Wikipedia article on John D. McCarty, and a number of references to these facts. I have added Dr. McCarty to the list in this article, without degrading the others. Pglawless (talk) 21:31, 7 June 2015 (UTC)
