        The Department of Defense has submitted to OMB for clearance, the 
    following proposal for collection of information under the provisions 
    of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35).
        Title, Form Number, and OMB Number: Appointment of Chaplains for 
    the Military Services; DD Forms 2088 and 2741; OMB Number 0704-0190.
        Type of Request: Revision.

        Responses Per Respondent: 1.
        Annual Responses: 797.
        Average Burden Per Response: 46 minutes (average).

        Needs And Uses: The Department is required to ensure that religious 
    organizations seeking to endorse chaplains are eligible and that 
    applicants qualified for the military chaplain services are endorsed by 
    those religious organizations. This information collection will provide 
    basis information about the religious organization seeking to supply 
    chaplains and ensure that those organizations are authorized by their 
    membership to act as the sole agency for the purpose of certifying and 
    endorsing clergy to serve as military chaplains. Two forms are 
    associated with this program to collect the necessary information. The 
    DD From 2741, ``Ecclesiastical Endorsing Organization Verification/
    Reverification Information,'' requests basic demographic information 
    about the religious denominations seeking to supply chaplains. It 
    request the name of an official authorized to represent the 
    organization to the Military Services, and it requires the organization 
    to certify that it is authorized by its membership to act as the sole 
    agency for the purpose of certifying and endorsing clergy to serve as 
    military chaplains. The DD Form 2088, ``Certificate of Ecclesiastical 
    Endorsement,'' is used by religious denominations to certify that a 
    member of their clergy is professionally qualified to become a 
    chaplain. It request information about name, address, professional 
    experience, and previous military experience to be used in determining 
    grade, date of rank, and eligibility for promotion for appointees to 
    the chaplain services.
