Back to EpisodesChaplains of the Minnesota National Guard: Service, Sacrifice, and the Legacy of the Four Chaplains
Published 1 month ago
Description
This week on Minnesota Military Radio, host Retired Command Sgt. Maj. Doug Wortham is joined by special co-host Tom Lyons and Minnesota National Guard chaplains:
- CH (LTC) Tim Usset (State Chaplain)
- CH (MAJ) Justin Lansdonne (full-time support chaplain and deputy division chaplain for the 34th Infantry Division)
- CH (CPT) Charles Kim (chaplain for the 34th Combat Aviation Brigade)
The guests share their personal paths into chaplaincy, how their civilian experiences—from civil engineering and youth ministry to healthcare chaplaincy and veteran-focused research—strengthen their ministry, and the essential spiritual, emotional, and family support they provide to soldiers, airmen, and loved ones amid the demands of service, moral injury, and life’s hardships.
