Airborne Church!

Over on Boardgamegeek.com David Dockter informs me (http://boardgamegeek.com/article/17591715#17591715):
“The Russian military has introduced a high-tech air-dropped church along with a unit of priests trained in parachuting and vehicle assembly to serve the army and navy’s Orthodox Christian soldiers in the field. The European country claims its airborne-friendly and ready-to-assemble house of worship is the first the world has ever seen, although similar structures have long been in existence.”
Looks like a unit for your game, Mr.Train.
No room to include this one in the counter mix but I wondered about the unit symbology to use for it:
The one on the left for the TO&E “wire diagram”, the one on the left for the installation in the field… though I am not sure what exact system the Russian Federation uses for its maps now, I am sure someone will fill me in, here or on BGG….

The United States needs to match this capability. Then we can rename the 101st Airborne “the Screaming Episcopals.”
That interested me, so I went and looked it up… according to this 2009 study of the US military as a whole (http://secular.org/files/mldc-ripsdemographics_0.pdf) the rough order of precedence is “no religious preference”, followed by Catholic and Baptist. Episcopalians less than 1 percent, sorry! But I have a suspicion that certain faiths (Evangelicals, Charismatics) may be concentrated in certain branches….
