ALT Screenshot of the Wikipedia article "Reich Ministry for Church Affairs." The intro says the ministry existed in Nazi Germany from 1935 to 1945 under Hanns Kerrl and Hermann Muhs, aiming to unify the churches and align them with National Socialism. An infobox shows the Nazi eagle-and-swastika emblem, with formation on 16 July 1935 and dissolution on 8 May 1945. The Background section explains the regime's failed effort to merge 28 Protestant churches into one Reich Church under Ludwig Müller, resistance from Martin Niemöller's Confessing Church, and Hitler's decision to have the government take over.
ALT Screenshot of a post on X from Sean Parnell (@SeanParnellASW), a verified account. The post reads: "Today, at Secretary Hegseth's direction, the Department of War is announcing the Office of Religious Affairs. Starting today, the Office of Religious Affairs will report directly to the Secretary of War. No staff filters. No bureaucratic dilution. A direct line to the Secretary. This won't be a policy shop pushing paper. It will have real teeth. It will protect budgets, demand infrastructure, and strengthen religious support across the force." Below the text is an image of a navy blue graphic with a gold border. In the upper half, a white eagle with wings spread, holding a shield, olive branch, and a crook-shaped staff, appears above the words "Office of Religious Affairs." A gold horizontal line divides the graphic, and in the lower half is the motto "Standing Firm, Preaching Truth, and Ministering to the Force," with a small gold eagle emblem at the bottom.
