Religious Leader Liaison is an essential part of the staff work chaplains perform. Indigenous religion and religious leaders are essential to a robust civil society and critical to the military mission's success. General David Petraeus tasked the author to develop a strategy to: engage Iraqi religious leaders, Iraqi government officials, and non-governmental organizations; advance reconciliation and healing acrosssectarian fault lines; and, foster positive religious messaging from clerics at every level. The strategy had to be relevant to military objectives, promote collaboration with other staff sections, and allow chaplains to retain their own distinctive faith identity
