Mosul

In 2004, Chaplain James Pennington arrived in Mosul, Iraq with the 1st Brigade 25th Infantry Division (Stryker). As a Battalion Chaplain, he would minister to the soldiers of the 25th Brigade Support Battalion as they experience the chaos of combat. The deployment covered the time from the infamous Mess Tent Bombing to Iraq’s first free elections. This book is a fictional account based on my deployment. The story presents a Reserve Army Chaplain who returns from a deployment now serving as Pastor dealing with the experiences of combat.
