Of course military personnel have the right to pray, as do all Americans. However, the US Constitution, American law & US Armed Forces regulations prohibit the secular military, as part of our secular government, from promoting or endorsing a religion except in military chapels or military chapel channels. Military chaplains may not proselytize their version of religion as official military sponsored religion on official military channels. That is why the unlawful practice was stopped by the military itself after many military members, including Christians, complained.
