Doe 1234 Maindrag Street Somewhere, Somestate 00000 C: (123) 456-7890 john.e.doe@us.army.mil (Current Date) Department of the Army Office of the Chief of Chaplains ATTN: DACH-PER 2511 Jefferson Davis Highway Arlington, VA 22202-3907 To Whom It May Concern: I understand that I have been endorsed to serve as a chaplain with the Army National Guard by the INSERT: {Name of Endorsing Organization}. As certified by the endorsement which I have received, I am a fully qualified member of the clergy of the INSERT: {Name of Endorsing Organization} and consider myself spiritually, morally, intellectually, and emotionally qualified to serve as a chaplain. To date, I have completed INSERT: {number of years} years of full-time active professional clergy service. While remaining faithful to my denominational beliefs and practices, I understand that, as a chaplain, I must be sensitive to religious pluralism and will provide for the free exercise of religion by military personnel, their families, and other authorized personnel served by the Army. I further understand that, while the Army places a high value on the rights of its members to observe the tenets of their respective religions, accommodation is based on military need and cannot be guaranteed at all times and in all places. I also recognize the importance of a diverse Army Chaplaincy representing all faiths, genders, and ethnic backgrounds. I fully support the diversity of the Corps that enables the branch to minister to the plurality of Americas Soldiers. I attest that the application interview with the field screening chaplain, INSERT: {Name of the Interviewing Chaplain}, considered my professional and academic qualifications, pastoral abilities, military experience, motivation for ministry in the Army Chaplaincy, and willingness to work cooperatively with other faith groups. Furthermore, the interview examined my ability to deal with people and my personality traits. The interviewer had the opportunity to assess my appearance, poise, general physical condition, and verbal and written proficiency in the English language. The interviewer discussed whether or not any personal concerns affecting myself or my family would result in limitation of assignment world-wide. My responses in the interview constitute a valid tool for assessment of my overall potential for service with the Army Chaplaincy. I fully understand that I must meet the applicable height/weight standards as listed in Army Regulation 600-9, when reporting for any military duty. Failure to meet this height/weight standard may delay my completion of the chaplain officer basic course, or may ultimately result in my discharge from the Army. I understand that my appointment as a commissioned officer in the United States Army is being accomplished prior to completion of a required National Agency Check and a Federal Bureau of Investigation Name Check. I further understand that if as a result of the post-commissioning investigative processes, I am determined disqualified for a secret clearance and therefore unacceptable for appointment as a commissioned officer, I will be discharged from the Unites States Army and that I will receive and appropriate discharge certificate. If the applicant, at the time of the accessioning board, will be above the maximum age or does not have enough creditable prior service to qualify for a 20 year retirement before MRD, include this statement (REMOVE THIS STATEMENT IF NOT APPLICABLE): I acknowledge that, because of my age and under existing legislation, I may not be entitled to military retirement benefits. In accordance with Army Regulation 350-100 (Officer Service Obligations) and in consideration of being granted commissioned in the Reserve of the Army with appointment in the Chaplain Corps, I acknowledge that I incur an eight (8) year mandatory service obligation (MSO). This MSO commences upon execution of the oath of office. I understand that if I am currently serving an MSO due to previous commissioning in another branch or military service, I incur no additional obligation. I further understand that I must complete an Officer Basic Course within 36 months from the date of appointment or be subject to discharge per AR 135-175 for failure to complete a basic branch course. {Applicants Original Signature} JOHN EDWARD DOE 123-45-6789     PAGE  PAGE 2    !*,56;<NOeftv   W k m r x z   ܿwofh5CJaJhICJaJh6h{Z6CJaJhCJaJhh5CJaJhd4CJaJh6CJaJhv uCJaJh7CJaJh{ZCJaJhrCJaJhv uh{ZCJ h{ZCJ hCJ hiCJ hqCJ h~"CJ hOiCJ h=bCJ h!FCJ% !<Ofuv     i`gdrgdr h8pH$ h8pHa$gdi8]    / 0  Y_abdij˻˞ˊvk]O]vFh{ZCJ]aJh6hC6CJ]aJh6h{Z6CJ]aJh6CJ]aJhrCJ]aJhr6CJ]aJhghg5CJaJh{ZCJaJh:bCJaJh6CJaJhh5CJaJhqCJaJhECJaJhrCJaJhd4CJaJh6hq6CJaJh6h{Z6CJaJh6h6CJaJij>?'(`gd_gd_`gdrr:FEƀ+Kgdgdrj*<{|?$%&'(÷è÷䑉yqf^huCJaJh h CJaJh&V%CJaJh_CJaJh CJaJh*uCJaJh h_CJaJh656CJ]aJh~"h56CJ]aJh56CJ]aJh~"h!F56CJ]aJh6oCJ]aJh7VCJ]aJh!FCJ]aJh{ZCJ]aJhCJ]aJ ,8:;=>@ACDM&`#$ h8dgd!FgdrgduJEƀJ`gd_+,789;<>?ABDEKLMOPVWXYZ\]^ǻh0JmHnHuh h0Jjh0JUhr2jhr2U h:bCJ hOiCJ h=bCJ h!FCJhh!F6CJ]aJhd4CJ]aJhrCJ]aJh(huCJ]aJMNOZ[\]^ h8d&`#$. 00 / =!"#$% 8@8 Normal_HmH sH tH DA@D Default Paragraph FontViV  Table Normal :V 44 la (k(No List 4 @4 Footer  !.)@.
