Every day men and women in the United States Navy sail across the ocean to strange and exotic lands far from their families and everything that is familiar to them. They will be faced with many harrowing ordeals as a part of their service to this great nation. They deserve to have something which will keep them grounded with something they recognize. For many of those onboard the ships this is found in the Navy Chaplain and the spiritual guidance he provides.
