I'm only posting this because I am in the position of having to learn more about the Chaplain corps. My son, a HS senior, wants to get his Masters of Divinity and join the Army as a Chaplain.

As I "understand" the process, the military requires you to have a Masters of Divinity, from there you have to apply and be accepted into the Chaplain corps.

I agree with WD. A school's "degree" means little compared to the "calling" one should have to preach the gospel.
