Pentagon Office of Religious Affairs Established by Pete Hegseth

Pete Hegseth announced the creation of an Office of Religious Affairs at the Pentagon that will report directly to him.
The office aims to provide 'first-class religious support' and advocate for military chaplains at the highest levels.
Critics argue this initiative could elevate Christianity's role in military policy and undermine religious diversity.
The office will not compel religious participation or favor one faith, according to Pentagon statements.
