About the Chaplain Center & School
The U.S. Army Chaplain School was created out of a need to adequately train chaplains to
staff the large military force which the United States was creating in 1917, for service in World War I.
The plan for the school was developed by Chaplain (MAJ) Aldred A. Pruden. On 9 February 1918,
the War Department approved Chaplain Pruden's plan and the first session of the Chaplain School commenced on 3 March 1918,
at Fort Monroe, Virginia. Click here to read more Chaplaincy history
