Chris_Baker Posted 18 October , 2016 Share Posted 18 October , 2016 UB means "United Board". Covers various baptist, congregational and other faiths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bardess Posted 18 October , 2016 Author Share Posted 18 October , 2016 Yes it is. The only thing I can think of is United Baptist but that sounds really off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
depaor01 Posted 18 October , 2016 Share Posted 18 October , 2016 Unitarian? can't help with the B though. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Clifton Posted 18 October , 2016 Share Posted 18 October , 2016 Chris Baker is right - it is United Board. We are looking at classifications of chaplains here, not denominations as shown on identity discs. Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
