Former Barksdale chaplain pleads guilty to sex charges
Gary Edward Underwood awaiting sentencing in Arizona.

A priest who once served at Barksdale Air Force Base as a chaplain pleaded guilty Tuesday in Tucson, Ariz., to six counts of sexual abuse of a minor, the Tucson Citizen is reporting.

Underwood, 53, who had been a major in the Air Force and Barksdale's senior Catholic chaplain since 2005, first was indicted in 2006 on charges of molesting two boys and was indicted on similar charges involving another boy last year. His guilty plea covers all three instances.

Underwood was relieved of religious duties in early August after a visit by Auxiliary Bishop Richard B. Higgins, of the Archdiocese for the Military Services. Higgins also briefed the Catholic Diocese of Shreveport of the allegations against Underwood.
