1/6 I have HIV. What does it matter?

Chaplains, affectionately known as 'The Bish' in the @RoyalNavy, play an important role in supporting our people. A Warship is their parish as they minister at sea, in the field and on a global scale. @of_fleet @DartmouthBRNC https://t.co/yfVxYe8lHE

I was honoured to host today members of the Iraqi Government and Military, and ambassadors and representatives from Embassies around the world, for an act of remembrance to commemorate all those who have died in conflicts and wars around the world.

تشرفت اليوم باستضافة أعضاء من الحكومة والجيش العراقي وسفراء وممثلين عن السفارات من جميع انحاء العالم، وذلك لإحياء ذكرى جميع من لقوا حتفهم في الصراعات والحروب حول العالم.

At the 11th hour, on the 11th day of the 11th month, we paused and remembered those who died in conflict.

Naval chaplaincy is a unique ministry. Chaplains carry no rank other than Chaplain @RoyalNavy allowing them direct access to all sailors and marines at sea and in the field. @of_fleet

Today saw the departure of Ven Martyn Gough as Chaplain of the Fleet & succeeded by Rev Andrew Hillier. @RoyalNavy @navy_news @ArmyChaplaincy @RAFChaplains @AdmTonyRadakin

Naval Chaplains are not Officers so don’t carry a weapon, but train the same as Young Officers. This is one of our New Entry Chaplains on exercise with Young Officers- we go where our people go. @DartmouthBRNC @churchofengland @RoyalNavy @AdmTonyRadakin @MoorlandsColl
