A Navy chaplain making a metal EP about his experiences in the Middle East
World's Okayest Chaplain is a Navy combat veteran and chaplain who was present for Operation Prosperity Guardian in 2024 — and came home and made a metal EP about it, because apparently that's what chaplains do now.
Battle Chaps is four songs pulled directly from combat experience: the drone that flew over the ship in silence, the ladder climbed without knowing what was on the other side, the sailors who locked in when everything said don't. Spoken word over metal instrumentation. No polish. No performance. Just what happened and what it cost, for the people who understand why that matters.
