Officer - Order of the British Empire

ROGERS, Alfred Allison, Chaplain 1/c (P), RCN, Command Chaplain Atlantic

Issued: 15-Jun-1946, Canada Gazette

"For zeal, ability and energy in constant devotion to duty. Selected for his unique ability to organize difficult situations, Padre Rogers was placed in one of the most strategic positions in the Chaplain Service, and for more than three years as Command Chaplain (P) to the Commander-in-Chief, Canadian Northwest Atlantic, he gave personal direction to the largest groups of Padres in the Royal Canadian Navy. In the several large training establishments, as well as operational bases within the jurisdiction of the Atlantic Command, Padre Rogers never failed to ensure that all Naval Personnel were given proper spiritual care. The untiring efforts of Command Chaplain Rogers not only met with the very responsive appreciation of the Naval Personnel to who his Chaplains ministered but at all times the work was carried out with a dignity and manner befitting the high traditions of the Canadian Naval Service."
