Chaplain killed in Afghanistan
The Pentagon says a chaplain killed in Afghanistan last week was the first Army clergyman killed in action since the Vietnam War.
Capt. Dale Goetz was among five soldiers killed by an improvised bomb last week. Officials say he had hitched a ride on a resupply convoy. Goetz and Staff Sgt. Christopher Stout, who was killed in Afghanistan in July, are the first chaplain and chaplain's assistant to die in combat since 1970.
Lt. Col. Carleton Birch, U.S. Army chaplain and spokesman for the Army Chief of Chaplains, says it is dangerous to be a clergyman in a combat zone.
