Rev. Justin Osterman, minister of the Mainline Unitarian Church in Devon, Pa., lost a parishioner in the tragic attacks of September 11, 2001. His fate took an unexpected turn when he served as a translator at the Guantanamo Bay detention center, using Arabic language skills he'd learned in the military. A member of Osterman's church who was representing two detainees at Guantanamo Bay asked him to interpret for him. Today, Rev. Osterman is a vocal critic of the detention center and a supporter of its closure. You can read or listen to his sermon, "Our Cuban Nightmare," and learn more about his experiences.
