Rabbi Has Been Consultant To Air Force On Religious Tolerance
Yesterday's Washington Jewish Week profiles Rabbi Arnold Resnicoff who has spent the past year as Special Assistant for Values and Vision to the Secretary and Chief of Staff of the Air Force. Resnicoff was called in after incidents of religious intolerance were reported at the U.S. Air Force Academy. Not only has Resnicoff worked on religious guidelines for the service, but he has moved more broadly to create a "values-based vision" for Air Force personnel. He believes that this may be more important in preventing future problems.
