LUILQJLQ. null, ichap H o I Captain Fred D. Bennett Cdr. Henry J. Rotrige Ll- Robert L- Trett Protestant Chaplain Catholic Chaplain ASSlS!Ufli Pfmesfam ChHP11liU From the long, lonely days of Plehe Summer when we hrst heard their warm Stop hy and see me sometime, we knew that the chaplains were wonder- ful people to have around. Their warmth, sincerity, and devotion to hoth God and the Service was forever inspirational along the long road of the transition from eivilian to military man. These three men had an enormous task, one to which they devoted their time and guidance with un- tiring efforts. lt wasnit the easiest thing in the world to coordinate the varied religious activities of the Brigade hut with their leadership, everything always seemed to turn out the right way. They were never too husy to pause for a few moments and talk over our problems with us and their advice was always the In-st. To the Brigade, their mere presence was their true significance. Conducting daily morning Mass and Communion services, working with the NACA and the Newman Cluh, the choirs, and handling the annual lVlessiah performance were just some of the activities that made their day a long and lull one. Their cheerful smiles and friendly words were welcome tonics which had the power to make even the lowliest Plehe :feel at home. We will always rernemhcr Chaplain liennett, Chaplain llotrige, and Chaplain Trett lor the hand that they ollered to us. Some ol us who were married in the Chapel following graduation will have double cause to do so, hut all of us can't help hut he better men and naval ollieers from the association with them. Ahove all, they taught us hy example that we have an ohligation to Cod as well as to the Service. Marching to Chapel Fl A 1 if i. E!1,fKTLKUti7K?h18A L E 1.25313 n.. a.

Under the leadership of Professor Gilley, they continually maintained their place among the best of their kind. For many years now, this cheerful gentleman has devoted his time to developing the harmony and beauty that we all came to associate with the choirs. Their hymns and anthems brought a special meaning to these services, and few could be unimpressed by the effect of the two choral groups in unison. , , 4 1 r P Antiphonal Choir.
