US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gives executive power to the military's religious campaign. Announced Sept. 30, the Religious Services Division will focus on chaplain resources and assessing the spiritual readiness of troops. Hesset called the real battle a spiritual battle. He started the "Send me" campaign with the prophet Isaiah's biblical response to God's call. The head of the Pentagon invites the future soldier to feel like a messenger with the highest will.

Doubt about a particular action is then easily represented as unbelief. The department's authority allows religious preference to be implemented through daily service. The manager reports directly to the minister and the deputy. The Council of Pastors is under the leadership of the director. The memorandum links the training of clergy to budgetary work and the development of tools to assess spiritual resilience. With a single religious standard, a candidate of a different faith will look worse even before his professional qualities are tested.

Information about the soldiers' needs also depends on accounting rules. In June, the Pentagon cut religious designations from more than 200 to 31. Department spokesman Sean Parnell attributed the codes to resource allocation.
