General, I spent my entire Navy career in Cryptology, including tours at NSA. Any suggestions on what we can do to educate and influence change? Organizations? Study groups? Thank you for all you continue to do. CDR Bill Ditewig, USN (ret.), Ph.D. [email protected].

We have 196 dioceses in the U.S. and each bishop has his own policy. The collar is for clergy, and deacons are clergy; it’s not for priests only. I’ve been a deacon for nearly 35 years and worn the collar in some dioceses and not in others.
