Hi Michael, But not their own worship space. That is hardly ridiculous considering that the others do have worship space. When I was in the Air Force in the 60s I never met anyone I knew was Jewish. Some I suspected, but if they were they were in the closet. Wouldn't have bothered me had they come out, but I didn't ask and they didn't tell. But officially, Jews and Judaism were never, ever mentioned. Of course, I had no reason to ask. The stuff you are talking about, Rabbis, kosher MREs, none of that anywhere in sight back in the day. >>>> The U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado will set aside a worship space >>>> for followers of "Earth-centered" religions such as Wicca and >>>> Druidism, according to an Air Force news release. >>>> >>>> A stone circle atop a hill on the base in Colorado Springs will likely >>>> be dedicated in a ceremony March 10, according to the release, and be >>>> available to cadets and other service members who live in the area. >>>> The base already has worship spaces for Protestants, Catholics, >>>> Muslims and Buddhist, the release said. >> Interesting that they stiffed the Jews.
