    A U.S. Army soldier, identifiable as a chaplain by the cross insignia on his uniform, stands smiling in front of a large ancient ziggurat structure made of mud brick. The massive stepped temple tower behind him appears to be the Great Ziggurat of Ur, located in present-day Iraq. The photo appears to have been taken during a military deployment, likely during the Iraq War era.

    Chaplain Terrence Hayes, 1st Sustainment Brigade chaplain, stands in front of the Ziggurat at Ur. The terraced-pyramid temple of the ancient Assyrians and Babylonians was built over 4,000 years ago. "This is the first Old Testament site I can think of visiting. When we were stationed in Germany we visited Ephesus and Miletus which are New Testament sites," said Hayes.
