    82nd Airborne Division

    Video uploaded for archival purposes. in 2020, we inducted two All American chaplains into the Hall of Fame: Col. Delbert A. Kuehl and Maj. George "Chappie" Bartlett Wood Jr.

    "They both served during World War II and in some ways, they're different personalities who went about ministry, but both are legends in their own right," said Lt. Col. Brain Koyn, the Division's current chaplain.

    Chaplain (Col.) Delbert Kuehl and Chaplain (Maj.) George Wood, who both honorably served in the 82nd Airborne Division during WWII were posthumously inducted in to the 82nd Airborne Division's 3rd annual Hall of Fame at a ceremony held on July 9, 2020.

    Chaplain (Col.) Delbert Kuehl participated in Operation Market Garden, and volunteered to accompany his unit while crossing the Waal River. Chaplain (Maj.) George Wood is the only chaplain in U.S. history who made four combat jumps: Sicily, Salerno, Normandy and Holland. The host of ceremony was Maj. Gen. James Mingus, Commanding General of the 82nd Airborne Division.

    Chaplain (Maj. Gen.) Thomas Solhjem U.S. Army Chief of Chaplains met with the inductees' family members after the ceremony, and spoke on the contributions the inductees had on the Army and proving them each a Four Chaplains coin. He highlighted on interview, the significance and rarity for Chaplains to receive this level of recognition. (U.S. Army Product by Sgt. 1st Class Jonathan Hornby).
