Hippie Minister Seeks GI Chaplaincy in Psychedelic Church

Boo Hoo leader Benjamin L. Osterberg, a 22 year old drafted private from Pensacola, seeks to become the Army chaplain for the Neo American Church. The Army says he does not meet requirements and does not recognize the church. The ACLU plans to assist in the bid, citing over 600 members nationally. Observers estimate about 50 lodge members in Pensacola. Osterberg leads sermons from a home called The All Night Harmonica Shop and publishes Mouth Organ weekly.

State Department officials say broad border action requires field commanders' permission, while warning deterrence remains a possibility.
