New chaplain insignia aims to strengthen trust, accessibility for Airmen

U.S Air Force Chaplain Edward Ganigan, 163d Attack Wing, California Air National Guard, poses for a photo, showcasing the newly introduced faith group insignia at March Air Reserve Base, Calif., August 6, 2026. The U.S. Air Force Chaplain Corps recently updated its uniform policy, replacing rank insignia with faith group insignia. The change supports the Chaplain Corps' mission to provide spiritual care, facilitate the free exercise of religion and ensure confidential counseling for Airmen, Guardians and their families.
