“Religion at a British Aerodrome on the Western Front: A chaplain conducting a service from the body of an Aeroplane. Army chaplains at the Front have to adapt themselves to circumstances. While the spirit of their teaching remains the same, its external accessories vary greatly according to circumstances. The ‘church,’ the ‘altar,’ and the ‘pulpit’ take strange forms. Thus services have been held in caves, in Nissen huts, in the ruins of wrecked villages and so on. Here is yet another variety of ‘church,’ in which the Padre is seen using an aeroplane as his pulpit” (from “The Illustrated London News,” Sept. 28, 1918).
