00:00.440 --> 00:03.690
un deployed installations . The need

00:03.690 --> 00:06.140
for safety and security override the

00:06.140 --> 00:08.084
desire for aesthetics and beauty .

00:08.084 --> 00:10.140
Staff sergeant Anthony Kuhn shows us

00:10.140 --> 00:12.251
how a downrange chapel found a way to

00:12.251 --> 00:14.196
have both service members from all

00:14.196 --> 00:16.418
corners of base gather at the sanctuary

00:16.418 --> 00:18.650
in the seven sands chapel for a variety

00:18.650 --> 00:21.140
of worship services . The chapel staff

00:21.140 --> 00:23.470
has added a few splashes of color . The

00:23.470 --> 00:25.637
stink glass windows actually came from

00:25.637 --> 00:28.330
uh military base sata , which is in

00:28.330 --> 00:31.200
Baghdad airport in Iraq . They're

00:31.200 --> 00:33.370
closing the airport down in the base ,

00:33.370 --> 00:36.040
down the chapel down After packing ,

00:36.040 --> 00:38.096
shipping and traveling more than 800

00:38.096 --> 00:40.262
miles from a now closed base in Iraq .

00:40.262 --> 00:42.373
These pieces of art have indeed found

00:42.373 --> 00:44.540
their new home not so much inside this

00:44.540 --> 00:46.651
room , but inside the hearts of those

00:46.651 --> 00:48.540
who view them . These windows are

00:48.540 --> 00:50.651
uplifting icons of faith and even for

00:50.651 --> 00:52.429
the most cynical , their bright

00:52.429 --> 00:54.596
splashes of some of the only colour in

00:54.596 --> 00:56.818
the area . Therefore , Staff Sergeant ,

00:56.818 --> 00:57.850
