Context & Disclaimer -
The only two Chaplains I can remember serving with, were really fuckin weird. And by weird, I mean I could smell the “little boy” on their breath.
Being in their presence made me feel uncomfortable, but listening to them talk and watching them interact with others made me think they had Aspergers and a proclivity for middle schoolers.
However, I’ve heard stories from many other service members who had amazing and memorable Chaplains. Chaplains who truly cared about the troops, who boosted morale, and helped Marines and soldiers get through hard times.
Then I heard stories about Chaplains who were once warriors, but replaced their rifle with the Bible to spread love and life, rather than hate and death.
These are the Chaplains I wanted to represent with the character Chaplain Kelly.
The idea for this character came from my friend Jeremy Walton, who was a leader in my non-profit Irreverent Warriors. During the Nashville Hike Jeremy pitched me the idea of a Chaplain who went around to patrol bases in combat zones and celebrated the Marines’ kills with a ceremony that was based in Norse mythology.
As a former (and recovering) Catholic, I saw a great opportunity to combine Catholic Mass, Marine Corps ceremony, and Norse mythology.
The result is one of the best and most entertaining characters to come out of VET Tv.
Chaplain Kelly knows 2ndLt Murphy and SSgt Rich from Iraq, specifically from Operation Phantom Fury, when Murphy and Rich served together in Kilo 3/5, 1st platoon. Corporal Murphy was a team leader in 3rd squad, and Sgt Rich was the squad leader for 2nd squad.
During the battle of Fallujah, Corporal Murphy was known to collect enemy body parts, and wore a necklace full of Iraqi ears. Word spread through the lance corporal underground that Murphy had ears, and every chance a grunt got, he’d cut off an ear. This became a problem, and within a week
Chaplain Kelly was summoned to the platoon, and confronted Murphy about the ears. Chaplain Kelly, then a Col, tried to convince Murphy to get rid of the ears, but Murphy refused, claiming that he earned the right to wear the ears by killing his enemies in battle.
Before Chaplain Kelly could bring Murphy back to the right side of humanity, Chaps was transferred to another battalion, and Murphy was left unchecked as he fought through the streets of Fallujah.
Chaplain Kelly always wished he could’ve gotten through to Murphy…
Chaps, Murphy, and Rich have a special bond and respect for each other because of their experiences in Iraq, and that’s why Chaps is exactly what SSgt Rich needs to get 2ndLt Murphy under control.
Chaps also has a thing for converting muslims to Christianity. It’s kind of his kink. If you want to know if Chaps “nails one” this visit, you gotta subscribe to watch the rest of the episode.
