Can I bring my rosary?

[EmBir88]

The list of things recruits are allowed to bring includes a small bible or a religious medal but it doesn't say anything about a rosary. Does anyone know? I obviously want to have my own beads to pray the Holy Rosary but if I can't, can I borrow a set from the chapel or something?

Yes you're allowed to bring religious medals, rosaries included!

As far as your rosary, you will not be able to "wear" it...you MAY be able to keep it with your small stuff like your address book, and take it out with you to church on Sundays
