    I would just hope that in an age of political correctness and spiritual compromise,that Chaplains from the LCMS are not directed by DOD leadership to refrain from counseling service personnel based on Biblical principles. With so much pandering to LGBT and homosexual issues, one wonders if some chaplains could be sanctioned or fired simply because they express Biblical convictions on these topics. Military personnel today have to undergo so much “sensitivity” training and are told to keep their religious views private so as to avoid “offending” the views and lifestyles of some of their comrades. I do not believe for a moment that directives from DOD by political and social engineers do not impact the chaplaincy and the way service personnel are counseled.
