A major U.S. Army base has added kosher food and a rabbi-chaplain after a Jewish soldier was beaten.
The move at Fort Benning, near Columbus, Ga., comes after 20-year-old Pvt. Michael Handman suffered a concussion when a fellow soldier beat him during basic training last fall, according to an article Friday in Army Times.
