HEADQUARTERS 1888TH ENGR. AVN. BN.<br /> Office of the Chaplain<br /> APO 218 c/o Postmaster<br /> 11 April 1945<br /> Dr. W.H. Jernagin<br /> National Baptist S.S. & BYPU Congress<br /> Washington, D.C.<br /> Dear Mr. Jernagin:<br /> The following observations, recommendations, and requests is a results of regular conversation with Negro Baptist Chaplains on duty in this Theatre. It has been our good privilege to minister to our fighting men in this distant land, and at times we have enjoyed a rich fellowship together. Almost without exception, our conversation has ended with important speculation as to the future of the Negro-Church, and especially our Baptist Church, inasmuch, as we plan to continue a Baptist ministry. The following observations seem to stand out, and the following recommendations and requests, are in our opinion, one was to counteract, to some degree, the anticipated loss of influence of our Negro Chruch.<br /> First, the majority of service-men we serve, who have church affiliation, are Baptist.<br /> Second, the majority of Negro-Chaplains on Active duty are Baptis, and are doing a good job as Chaplains.<br /> Third, it is our painful observation, that our church is one of the larger protestant bodies in the United States, but is neglecting its responsibility to keep in touch with its communicants in the Army through some type publication. Here we point out the tremendous amount of devotional literature that is sent out indiscriminately by other denominational bodies, while we, as a church allow this method of communion to pass, seemingly without thought.<br /> Fourth, the returning service-man will need orientation. After many months of regimentation he will need by less respectful of most civilian authority, and will need the counsel of the Church and the minister in making re-adjustment.
