A vicar (/ˈvɪkər/; Latin: vicarius) is a representative, deputy or substitute; anyone acting "in the person of" or agent for a superior (compare "vicarious" in the sense of "at second hand"). Linguistically, vicar is cognate with the English prefix "vice", similarly meaning "deputy". The title appears in a number of Christian ecclesiastical contexts, but also as an administrative title, or title modifier, in the Roman Empire. In addition, in the Holy Roman Empire a local representative of the emperor, perhaps an archduke, might be styled "vicar".
This is a rare unit, not sure exactly what department it falls under, it has the stripes and fonts that the OCSO uses, as well as the OCSO badge, but also has OFD, OCFR, RCFD, badges.

At 12:55 am on February 3, 1943, a German torpedo struck the USAT DORCHESTER transporting soldiers in the North Atlantic during World War II. Twelve of the fourteen lifeboats were unusable and there were not enough life jackets for the frantic soldiers. Rabbi Alexander Goode, Rev. George L. Fox, Rev. Clark V. Poling and Father John P. Washington gave their life jackets to others.
Remaining on board, the Chaplains offered solace to the frightened men. Their actions saved lives. Soldiers, who survived, tell of the Four Chaplains, each of different faith, standing arm in arm, praying and singing as the ship vanished beneath the waves.
Posthumously, each Chaplain was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross and the Purple Heart for heroism. In 1948, the U.S. Postal Service issued a commemorative stamp, citing their bravery as "Interfaith in Action."
Only 230 of 902 Americans survived this tragedy.

An outdoor 1936–1937 statue of Francis P. Duffy by Charles Keck is installed at Duffy Square, part of Times Square, in the New York City borough of Manhattan. The statue, which was dedicated on May 2, 1937, and has the title Father Francis P. Duffy, earned Keck a Grand Lodge Medal for Distinguished Achievement from the Masonic order.
Duffy Square, officially named Father Duffy Square in 1939, is the northern triangle of Times Square in Manhattan, New York City. It is bounded by 45th and 47th Streets, Broadway and Seventh Avenue. It is now well known for the TKTS reduced-price theater tickets booth located there.
In the 18th and 19th centuries Lowes Lane connected Bloomingdale Road to Eastern Post Road. The west end of the lane was at the modern Duffy Square, and the east end at approximately the modern Third Avenue and 42nd Street. Lowes Lane and Eastern Post Road were suppressed late in the 19th century, but Bloomingdale Road survives under the name of Broadway.
Duffy Square was briefly dominated by a fifty-foot, eight-ton plaster statue entitled Purity (Defeat of Slander) by Leo Lentelli in 1909. Now the square has two statues: a bronze statue of Chaplain Francis P. Duffy of New York's "Fighting 69th" Infantry Regiment, after whom the square is named, sculpted by Charles Keck, and another statue depicting composer, playwright, producer and actor George M. Cohan, by sculptor Georg J. Lober. The statue of Duffy was dedicated by Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia on May 2, 1937, who also signed the law authorizing the renaming of the square to "Father Duffy Square" on March 29, 1939; on June 13 of that year, the street signs were changed. The statue of Duffy and the square itself were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.

Training in remote areas like the one in Soroti, Uganda, for Atlas Drop 11
gives U.S. and host-nation Soldiers the opportunity to share knowledge, tactics and skills. The training is rigorous; days are often long and the nights short.
Maintaining the spiritual needs of Soldiers is an important task, the responsibility of chaplains and their assistants.
Chaplain (Capt.) Andy Shepherd of Moreland, Ga., a chaplain assigned to the 3rd Squadron, 108th Cavalry Regiment, Georgia National Guard, and his assistant, Sgt. Desmond Manning of Stockbridge, Ga., spent their time during Atlas Drop 11 attending to the spiritual needs of U.S. Soldiers and provided counseling services.
Their job didn’t end at the edge of the drop zone; both Shepherd and Manning reached out to the surrounding communities.
“I just went out one day walking downtown to pick up some supplies,” said Shepherd. “The locals were really glad to see us, and that really just touched my heart. That really just put a drive in me to go visit more people out in the community to let them know we’re here and that we care — and as a chaplain, as a Christian — just to show the love of God and that I do care, that I am concerned.”
That first walk around Soroti sparked a desire in Shepherd and Manning to get out more and meet people and visit schools, churches and orphanages to assess their needs and what they could do to help. Since that first walk they played soccer and prayed with school children, talked to numerous clergy from various faiths about their ministries and shook hundreds of hands. This was all this in addition to taking care of and talking to Ugandan and U.S. Soldiers.
Shepherd said the people of the Soroti area have touched his heart during his short stay.
“Going out into the community has really affected me in several ways,” he said. “One, it has really humbled me as a person, to see how the people live here and how they are so happy and enjoying life with so little. And also it has really affected me spiritually. I have been touched and challenged to, even when I leave here, continue to give to some of the places that I have visited. I feel just kind of challenged to do more.”
Manning said he was deeply moved by the people he has met and the lives they lead.
“It’s really touched me just to see the kinds of conditions the people live in. It’s something that I will take with me the rest of my life,” he said. “I go to bed and I cannot sleep. I just lie there going over all the things I saw during the day.”
In coming to Uganda, Manning was focused on providing spiritual support for Soldiers, but after going out and meeting people and seeing the conditions in the schools, his desire to also provide spiritually for the people in Soroti grew.
“Maybe we cannot give them the material things that they need, but we can provide them a little support and let them know that there’s a God, that there’s hope,” he said. “That’s what we do as chaplains and chaplain assistants: We reach out not just to our people, but we go out there and give what support we can give.”
When Atlas Drop 11 ends, Shepherd and Manning will both return to Georgia, having done their best to follow the scriptural admonitions of going the extra mile and succoring the weak that they believe in deeply. It is also likely that both of them would say that they wish they could have done more.
“This experience in Uganda has also been a blessing to me, to experience the people here and how they have so much hope with the few resources they have,” said Shepherd. “It has really challenged me to figure out ways to minister and show the love of God to the Ugandans. I have been very fortunate to have this experience. I think it’s something that I will never forget.”

The Second World War is one of the most popular topics in contemporary history. This was, after all, a gargantuan conflict that spanned the entire globe and included all types of intrigue, horror, and heroism. Although the events of this period are well chronicled, many more subtle points are often missed. An excellent example of this is the perspective of people within Nazi Germany who were not Nazis themselves, but had to serve the Nazi state. This viewpoint provides a fascinating and insightful perspective on the totalitarian state and the people who lived in it. Their view reveals not only the end result, but also the process involved and the emotional and moral conflicts therein. The military chaplaincy provides a superb example of this as the chaplains were firmly situated between two loyalties, the totalitarian state and the Church, that were often, although not always, diametrically opposed to each other.
The position of chaplain in the Nazi army was one characterized by moral dilemmas and obvious contradictions. As in all wars the chaplains first had to grapple with the morality of the war itself. Second, once that bridge had been successfully crossed, how one could, as a pastor, knowingly serve a regime whose ideology was so radical and that fostered, in the best times, a policy of benign neglect toward the Church. However, the chaplains did not choose this service, but were conscripted into the army. One could argue that they ministered to the soldiers in time of war just as they would have to their parishioners in peacetime. Yet even this, in the words of historian Doris Bergen, was a profound betrayal because it represents aiding and abetting the Nazi cause. In the case of the Catholic chaplains of the Nazi-era Wehrmacht (German Army), the question is not only how they acted, but why they acted in this manner. First, did they agree with Nazi ideology on key issues? Second, were the chaplains loyal primarily to the state, the men, or the Church, and how much distinction did they make between the three? Third, to what extent did the chaplains act upon these loyalties and motives? Finally, what picture emerges of Catholic chaplains and what conclusions can one draw?
While the chaplains did not actively resist Nazism as, for example, Dietrich Bonhoeffer did, they did oppose Nazism in the ideological and individual sphere. The motives of Catholic chaplains such as Josef Perau and Ernst Tewes were benign and their ideology differed greatly from the propaganda and vitriolic ideas espoused by Nazi leaders on issues such as the sub-humanity of Jews and Slavs, the morality and necessity of the conflict, and the resulting atrocities. Furthermore, the chaplains' actions and words within their narratives demonstrate that these Catholic chaplains were loyal first to the Church, second to the men they were ministering to, and third, if at all, to the Nazi state.

A military chaplain ministers to military personnel and, in most cases, their families and civilians working for the military. In some cases they will also work with local civilians within a military area of operations.
Although the term chaplain originally had Christian roots, it is generally used today in military organizations to describe all professionals specially trained to serve any spiritual need, regardless of religious affiliation. In addition to offering pastoral care to individuals, and supporting their religious rights and needs, military chaplains may also advise the executive on issues of religion, and ethics, morale and morals as affected by religion. They may also liaise with local religious leaders in an effort to understand the role of religion as both a factor in hostility and war and as a force for reconciliation and peace.
Military chaplains normally represent a religion or faith group but work with military personnel of all faiths and none. Some countries, like the Netherlands and Belgium, also employ humanist chaplains who offer a non-religious approach to chaplain support.
