As Muslim chaplains\, upholding the First A mendment is not just part of their job description\, it is highly personal . Rafael Lantigua\, Khallid Shabazz\, and Saleha Jabeen swear an oath to t he Constitution\, vowing to protect the right of every service member to p ractice their faith freely. Despite decades of military service\, some sti ll view them as the enemy and unfit to serve because of their beliefs. Rat her than blend in\, they accept the challenges and inherent dangers of bei ng the public face of Islam for the U.S. military. Three Chaplains goes inside the armed forces to reveal how these chaplains practice\, te ach\, and share their faith with troops around the country. Rafael\, Khall id\, and Saleha each face resistance—from accusations of terror to disap proval from their own families and community—while ascending to the high est ranks of the military. Like generations of minority service members be fore them\, they call on the Department of Defense to support equality for all.
