Canadian Forces Honours Its Chaplains

The following is an excerpt of a Canadian Forces General Order (CANFORGEN) listing honours and awards, including a unit commendation for the Canadian Forces Chaplain Branch for its service in operations over the last decade. I am proud of each and every one of my chaplain brothers and sisters who through their efforts overseas, from Bosnia to Afghanistan to Haiti and the Golan and many places besides, earned this commendation because they were called to serve.
