This publication provides doctrine for religious affairs in joint
operations. It also provides information on the chaplain's roles as
the principal advisor to the joint force commander (JFC) on
religious affairs and a key advisor on the impact of religion on
military operations. It further provides information on the
chaplain's role of delivering and facilitating religious ministries
in joint operations. Chaplains have always been an integral part of
the US military. US military chaplaincies are characterized by
interfaith structure and pluralistic cooperation. The role of
chaplaincies is to accommodate religious needs, to support welfare
and morale, and to help the command understand the complexities of
religion with regard to its personnel and mission. The
Constitution, law, and policy support the free exercise of
religion. Title 10, United States Code (USC), provides for the
appointment of officers as chaplains in the Military Departments.
Chaplains have rank without command, and dual roles as religious
leader and staff officer. Military commanders are responsible to
provide for the free exercise of religion of those under their
authority. Religious affairs in joint military operations will
require a variety of actions supporting different types and phases
of operations. There are many types of activities that commanders
conduct outside of combat operations. Before, during and after
combat operations, consistent with their noncombatant status and
with the law of armed conflict, chaplains may be involved in
planning and coordinating pastoral presence; caring for the wounded
and honoring the dead; advising on appropriate chaplain liaison in
support of military operations; ensuring the JFC and staff
understand the constraints and restraints related to the
noncombatant status of chaplains; coordinating for RST
replacements. This publication establishes doctrine and guidance
for the Armed Forces of the United States regarding religious
affairs in the joint force environment and joint operations. It
describes the major responsibilities and functions of the joint
force commander, joint force chaplain, enlisted religious support
personnel and religious support teams regarding religious affairs
in joint force settings and operations.
