The United States Army has and will continue to train, prepare, and send chaplains on combat deployments in the global War on Terrorism. As the spiritual leaders of the United States Army, chaplains must prepare for their combat deployment and the ensuing hardships, risks, and dangers of combat. This thesis examines the doctrinal requirements for a chaplain in combat, considers chaplains in recent combat operations, and seeks to determine the best way a chaplain prepares for combat.
