http://Pratima Dharm the first Hindu priest of the U.S. Army

I have heard of Hindus in the U.S. Army. One of the members here, his son was in \Iraq. A cousin's son was wayward, and he was admitted to the U.S. army by his parents.

But the concept of a Hindu priest? Not sure if there are Hindu priests in the Indian or British armies.
