We had a few Chaplains in the 7th who had been DET CDRs in the 5th or 1st, left the service to attend seminary school, and then returned as Chaplains. People would get that WTF stare when they'd see our Chaplains in dress uniform with a CIB, Master Wings, BSMw/V, etc.

I'll be interested to hear COL Gore's tale, though.
