A lot of the recruits are god fearing folks that believe in spreading the word. Besides having missionaries going around has to be good for intel and cointel.
I'm sure there might be people in the admin. or Pent. who might have had it in mind & thought it might be nice to happen; but I find it unlikely. I'm sure there are the "God-fearing recruits" there too; but no-one is doing that there.

I know people who have been to Afgn. [Canadian military] believe me, there's no missionary work being done by the troops or anyone over there.
