primarily by the civil agencies, but is available to
the RP if necessary. Because of the numerous
and unrelated items in stock, the GSA Supply
Catalog is published in five volumes which are
listed below:
. GSA Supply Catalog Guide
l GSA Furniture Catalog
l GSA Industrial Products Catalog
. GSA Office Products Catalog
l GSA Tools Catalog
The GSA Supply Catalog Guide serves as a
master reference for the four commodity-
oriented volumes. These volumes are maintained
in the supply department and are used when an
item cannot be found in the previously men-
tioned IL or when additional information is re-
quired on a specific item. Also, the GSA Guide
provides information on the regional offices and
their individual areas of responsibility. Figures
II-2-6 and II-2-7 show the regional offices,
addresses, telephone numbers, and other perti-
nent information. Remember, this segment of
the supply system is designed primarily for use
by the civil agencies. The RP should use normal
Navy supply channels if at all possible.
U.S. Navy Chaplains Program
Support Guide (NAVPERS 15992)
This publication, although not considered to
be a supply publication, is of primary interest to
b o t h t h e c o m m a n d c h a p l a i n a n d R P .
NAVPERS 15992 is divided into two sections.
The first section provides a directory of active
duty chaplains, inactive duty chaplains, and
Theological Student Program officers.
Section two is referred to as the program
support section and serves as a ready reference
for chaplains and RPs on budgeting and supply
matters. Specifically, this section contains infor-
mation on ordering supplies and materials
needed by the Command Religious Program.
The remainder of the discussion on NAVPERS
15992 will be devoted to explaining section two
of this publication. When it is necessary to order
supplies having one of the FSCs shown in figure
II-2-4, the RP should first consult section two of
the latest edition of NAVPERS 15992 to see if
the item is listed. Figure II-2-8 was extracted
from this section. The information listed next to
each item is important supply data which is
required to fill out the MILSTRIP requisition
form. Note the “Candlelighter and Snuffer” in
figure II-2-8. This item will be used later in this
chapter to explain MILSTRIP requisitioning. At
that time, supply accounting data will be
explained in more detail.
It is important for the RP to remember that
NAVPERS 15992 is used as an easy reference
rather than as an up-to-date supply policy
publication.
Prices of items, among other
things, change periodically and the personnel in
the supply department maintain the most cur-
rent information including price lists. Therefore,
the RP should consult with the supply personnel
before filling out a MILSTRIP requisition form.
Also, if an item is not listed in the Program Sup-
port Guide, the personnel in the supply depart-
ment will be able to assist the RP in determining
if the item is carried under a national stock
number.
Civilian Ecclesiastical Supply
Catalogs
These catalogs, which provide a comprehen-
sive list of church goods, vestments, and articles
of devotion, are published by private com-
panies. Normally, items ordered from these
companies cost more than the same items carried
in the Federal Supply Classification System. If
an item is needed, and cannot be procured using
the FSC System, then these companies are
sources of supply, The personnel in the supply
department can explain how an order is placed
with these companies when necessary.
