Amen, Padre. Amen!

Our DIVARTY Chap Father Ondo had the COL's heart and somehow I got tagged as the CESO with building a field confessional for Father Ondo. With a little help from the Supply SGT, and the S-4 I was able to order a set of RATT Rig curtains for a Jeep. With a couple of minor sewing alterations from two dear Ladies from the post Women of the Chapel and about an hours worth of entertainment for the troops in the motorpool as an officer actually did work it was in place.

Saw two grown men cry at the end of that day on seeing the Jeep mounted Field Confessional; Col O'Mera the DIVARTY Cdr. and Father Ondo.

Jeep mounted field confessional.

Reminds me of my days as a captain with the 101st doing field communion on the hood of a Jeep. I (literally) ran the wheels off that jeep. I've got pictures someplace.
