WIS News 10 - Columbia, South Carolina | Fort Jackson holds 1st graduation for Navy chaplains
Member Center:
The service for the new chaplains is Friday morning.
The Army, Air Force and Navy now train all chaplains at the Army's Fort Jackson training installation outside Columbia.
Known as the Armed Forces Chaplaincy Center, the institutions were brought together in line with the 2005 base closure and realignment process.
An $11 million construction project is under way for the schools.
The Air Force, which moved its school from Alabama, graduates its first class of 30 chaplains in April. The Army will graduate 96 in December. In all, about 680 chaplains annually will be trained at the center.
