摘要

An old adage holds there are no atheists in foxholes. While the accuracy of the statement is debatable, the presence of military chaplains on the battlefield is a certainty. Chaplains fill a unique and vital role in war that is frequently overlooked in the study of military history. Author Michael E. Shay's latest work, Sky Pilots: The Yankee Division in World War Ⅰ, is a detailed examination of that famed unit's chaplains in the Great War. These men, bereft of earthly weapons, served at the front throughout the 26th Yankee Divisions brief but bloody deployment on the Western Front during World War Ⅰ. Not content to remain in rear areas, the chaplains saw their duties as ministering to the front-line soldiers, facing the same hardships and even accompanying the infantrymen during combat operations. Their bravery came at a cost as several Yankee Division chaplains were wounded, and two were killed during the war.
