Former military chaplain Andreas Christensen talks about his deployments to Afghanistan, Iraq and Kosovo. He sets his experiences against the biblical command "You shall not kill", and asks what it means to send soldiers into situations where killing may become necessary, and to be prepared to kill oneself to save a comrade or oneself.
The evening covers life in the camp and beyond, whether soldiers seek out the chaplain, and whether a chaplain makes a difference. Christensen, a priest of Hellig Kors Kirke in Nørrebro and chair of the Kirkens Korshær shelter, is also expected to comment on Denmark's new 11-month conscription, which has started with its first volunteer intake.
