The commanding officer has   authority   to   use   buildings   designated   as chapels  for  a  multitude  of  religious,  command, and   civil   activities.   Normally   the   command chaplain serves as an advisor to the commanding officer on the use of base facilities that are used as chapels. The RP assists the command chaplain in ensuring that Department of Defense policy and local command directives are followed concerning the proper use of spaces designated for use by the CRP. Almost all shore installations have at least one fully  equipped  facility  for  use  by  all  religious groups  represented  by  command  personnel.  When no other base facilities are available for use as a chapel,   services   are   usually   conducted   in   the theatre  or  the  auditorium. THE   COMMAND   CHAPLAIN The   ranking   (senior)   chaplain   is   usually designated as the command chaplain when more than  one  chaplain  is  assigned  to  a  command. Besides advising the command on matters pertain- ing to religion and morale, the command chaplain supervises  the  ministries  of  all  other  chaplains assigned to the unit. These chaplains are referred to  as  assistant  chaplains.  Also,  the  command chaplain  performs  duties  similar  to  those  of  a department head or division officer in relation to managing RPs and other enlisted personnel who may  be  assigned  duties  in  the  office  of  the chaplain. The  command  chaplain  is  a  key  officer  in promoting the religious and general well-being of command   personnel.   The   command   chaplain serves  as  an  advisor  to  the  commanding  officer on  religious  and  morale  matters.  Collateral  duties of the chaplain are properly confined to the field of religion and morale so as not to interfere with the  chaplain’s  primary  duties.  An  example  of appropriate  collateral  duty  is  the  responsibility  to furnish the commanding officer with information on  the  ceremonies  of  religious  institutions  and 1-5
