On the recordJanuary 25, 2010
On Saturday on public radio, there was a very nice piece on our Chaplain. It was a long interview; it must have taken 10 or 15 minutes. The woman doing the interview on public radio came to his office here. She was at various places with him. It was a very good piece historically about the history of the Chaplain in the Senate, and it spoke very well of our Chaplain--the first African American to become an admiral in the Navy, our first African-American Chaplain. He is a person who is very accomplished. I appreciate the work he does for each of us individually and the work he does with various groups. He has a number of study groups here that he works with on a weekly basis. In the Senate, we are very proud of our Senate Chaplain, ADM Dr. Barry Black.
