AA Is the Chaplain's Ally

THIS is the story of a small Alcoholics Anonymous group on an Air Force Base in Florida and what it was able to accomplish in the lives of men who were on their way out or in otherwise serious trouble in their military careers. In the short span of three years, fifty-two men in deep trouble over their drinking problems were restored to favor and acceptable duty. Some regained lost rank rapidly, and others by a slower route. Now most of them have not only new stripes as tangible evidence but self-respect and family love to prove the value of a step which they should have taken long ago. It is the contention of this chaplain, who watched them progress from their great decision, that they might have taken the step sooner had the help been more readily available.
