Mr. Weinstein and the Military Religious Freedom Foundation, 

We wanted to pass on some information and thank the MRFF again for intervening in the situation me and one of my fellow enlisted members brought to you all over a week ago.

This is referencing the “commander’s crisis Christian prayer tree” matter we brought to the MRFF.

In short we were advised by our (Senior enlisted briefer’s rank and title withheld) at a mandatory unit assembly earlier this week that this phone tree was no longer under the control of our commander. It has now been deactivated and moved to the management of the Chaplain’s office. Which makes perfect sense.

We view this as a big win and we thank the MRFF for making it happen. We wanted to make sure to let all of you be aware of it.

However on the downside when a question came to the (Senior enlisted briefer’s rank and title withheld) after we had already been dismissed as to why this change happened he said to the few of us still hanging around and I quote, “some people complained to an anti-Christian organization mostly run by Jews.” WTF? Most troops had already left but there were still a few dozen within earshot when this happened. That statement was just wild and I couldn’t believe it was said?

I cannot know with any sort of certainty as to whether any Jewish troops were there to hear it? And I guess it really doesn’t matter. No matter what it was completely fucked up! But it shows you what the command environment is here and in many other places in the (military branch name withheld). If anybody tries to register a formal complaint about it it’s hard not to believe that they are going to get jacked up stat for sure one way or the other.

Thank you again Mr. Weinstein for what the MRFF did here at (military installation name withheld) to cause the dismantling of our commander’s crisis Christian prayer phone tree.
