Chickenhawks: Chaplain Corps
[edit] Rev. Jerry Falwell
|
|
|
- Born: 1933
- Employer: Thomas Road Baptist Church
- Conflict Avoided: Korea, Peacetime Draft
- Notes: Jerry could probably have served in Korea - other kids his age did. He certainly could have been drafted into the peacetime Army. He called the members of his '70's cult the Moral Majority "soldiers of morality." For all his loathing of communism, it's a pity he didn't get to kill a few when he was young.

[edit] Dr. Marion "Pat" Robertson
|
|
|
- Born: 1930
- Employer: Christian Broadcasting Network
- Conflict Avoided: Korea
- Notes: Dr. Pat claimed in his biography to have "seen combat in Korea. He was in Korea in uniform briefly, but his daddy the Congressman got his reassigned to Japan. His picture belongs in the dictionary next to "pious fraud." Just recently declared that the State Department ought to get nuked, but has yet to be indicted for uttering a terrorist statement.
