Col. Robert M. Taradash, Commander TF Protector, guides Navy Rear Adm. Mark L. Tidd, United States Navy chief of chaplains, through a detainee housing unit, part of the Detention Facility in Parwan, April 4, 2012. Also on the tour were Air Force Brig. Gen. Howard Stendahl, United States Air Force chief of chaplains, and Army Brig. Gen. Kevin R. Turner, United States Army chief of chaplains. The chiefs of chaplains visited Camp Sabalu-Harrison to meet with chaplains and chaplain assistants on the forward operating base, as well as gain an understanding of detention operations in Afghanistan. "The call to serve is what drives us,” said Tidd, while addressing the chaplains and chaplain assistants. “We serve soldiers and leadership through advice and encouragement," he said. The tour also included the on-site state-of-the-art medical facilities, legal operations and the detainee service branch. (Department of Defense photo by U.S. Army Capt. Eugene M. Bath)
