agitated Captain Taylor responded; "What did he do?"

"Sir, I think that he took my injury from me..."

Rios began to unwrap the bandages. The Corpsman removed the bandages and could not find the wound. They bandaged up the unconscious Chaplain Blue and left him in the recovery area. All of the men and women present were shocked and silent. No one could even understand what had just happened.

Chaplain Blue awakened as he was placed in a chopper and airlifted to a nearby airbase. As he recuperated in a large medical facility he was visited by Lance Corporal Rios.

Rios kneeled by his bedside and whispered;"Chaplain?"

Blue answered weakly; "What's up Rios?"

"We're going home Sir!"

"What are you talking about? We're not supposed to be leaving for at least four more months!"

"Sir..."

"Yes?"

"What do you remember Chaplain?"

"You and your platoon went on patrol and you returned with a stomach wound yesterday morning!"

"How could you have known that Chaplain?"

"Because I was there son..."

"Sir, that happened two months ago."

"Don't you remember, we came under enemy attack during Sunday morning service. You risked your life to save your RP, me and Lance Corporal Bass. A shell exploded as you helped us find cover. I took a hit in my stomach and you were knocked unconscious. You were in a coma when we were evacuated. I almost died myself but my injury...it...it just went away...but you were pretty bad. The doctors and nurses kept me updated of your progress and it was as if multiple injuries to various parts of your body appeared and disappeared at random during the last sixty days."

Chaplain Blue replied; "What?!"

"Sir, you've been out for two months in a coma...where were you?"

Chaplain replied; "There’s only one explanation. I was travelling with the Father my son, and there is more work to be done..."

With that statement, Chaplain Leon Blue removed the bandages from his body and walked out to a balcony overlooking a large body of water.

He looked to the sky and whispered "Thank you" to the Lord who had taken him on the first of many amazing journeys to spread the word and to do the work of God.
