Thanks, Drole - I am interested in knowing the exact situations and whether or not it is a case of undue pressure being put on a service man/woman (unacceptable) or another case of "I regard all expressions of Christianity (insert religion of your choice here) as being a personal affront", which is the philosophy I object to - I also want to know whether or not it is a case of a few anecdotal experiences or something more widespread and documented.

Let me be clear - I would not want any service personnel to feel obligated to have to participate in any religious services. I also do not want the government to deny those who serve the right to continue to maintain their religious observances if at all possible (I could imagine scenarios when that might conflict with military operations).
