So you don't see the function of the 'atheist chaplain'. I thought church in the army was just an excuse to get out of some stuff, I know that's more than cynicism.
Your observation demonstrates the uniqueness of the metaphysical, and there's no reason I know of that atheism would deny metaphysical considerations which would necessarily fall outside of the self imposed strict remit of science, but not impede on theism. That being so, there is good reason for the chaplaincy.
