Just the Christian chaplains and chaplain assistants, or the Jewish and Islamic ones also?

Re #21; Traditionally, Jews do not proselytize.
There is no “Great Commission” in the Torah that I’m aware of. They will accept converts, but as a general rule don’t go around advertizing or recruiting for the Faith.

Christian Chaplains don’t usually (and I don’t think are permitted to) evangelize outside of their constituency of Believers but routinely minister, pray for and with, to and support them.

If a seeking Soldier came to a Christian Chaplain inquiring of the Faith they were allowed to share, but that seems to be changing.

Muslims? Are you kidding?
