Recent Letter from Air Force Chaplain
Dr. Beal –
As an Air Force chaplain, I was exposed to the issues of combat stress, PTSD, physical and moral injury, etc. Toward the end of my career, I served in Iraq (2006-2007), notably in the combat hospital in Balad. Previously, I had served three years at Dover AFB and was involved in the port mortuary ministry. The stories you share in your book resonate with me in many ways. ​ READ FULL LETTER
