Chaplain's insignia
Here is an interesting article by former Navy chaplain, Rabbi Arnold E. Resnicoff, about changing the chaplain insignia to make it more uniform across the different religions and faiths.

New Book
A new book, Contending with Catastrophe, was just released. It contains a number of articles with Jewish responses to 9/11. I am somewhat curious to read it. I enjoyed David Shatz's original article published not long after 9/11 and I believe it is reprinted in this volume. What I did find interesting is that the site claims that there is a prayer for American soldiers stationed around the world that was composed after 9/11 in the volume. Is it this one? Is there not an older prayer?
