File:Beirut Peacekeeping Chapel Sign After Explosion.jpg
In the article, "With the Marines in Beirut," published in the Fall 1984 issue of "The Jewish Spectator," Rabbi Arnold Resnicoff, one of the Navy chaplains present during the attack, wrote: "Amidst the rubble, we found the plywood board which we had made for our "Peace-keeping Chapel." The Chaplain Corps Seal had been hand-painted, with the words "Peace-keeping" above it, and "Chapel" beneath. Now "Peace-keeping" was legible, but the bottom of the plaque was destroyed, with only a few burned and splintered pieces of wood remaining. The idea of peace - above; the reality of war - below."
