America's combat chaplains of 'all faiths' are the focus of new film

A documentary now in theaters, "Fighting Spirit," tells the stories of America's combat chaplains of all faiths; they are soldiers who are sent out into the battlefield without weapons.

Prior to beginning work on the film, the director said he "didn't know anything about military combat chaplains" — but he quickly found himself amazed by their stories of bravery and heroism. Christine Rousselle is a lifestyle reporter with Fox News Digital.

"These are people [who] go to war wearing a uniform but not carrying a weapon," he said. "And I thought, 'Who in the world does that?' Obviously, it's a profession you do for far more than just a paycheck."
