Field Manual FM 1-05 Religious Support October 2012
Army doctrine is a body of thought on how Army forces operate as an integral part of a joint force. Doctrine is a guide to action, not a fixed set of rules. Doctrine provides an Army unit or branch with a common philosophy, language, and purpose. FM 1-05 provides a cohesive understanding of the fundamentals of religious support (RS). It is the Army’s doctrinal source for religious support planning, training, and operations.

FM 1-05 is the Army’s keystone manual for detailing fundamental principles of comprehensive religious support. This field manual provides the foundation for evaluating and refining tactics, techniques, and procedures for religious support operations (RSO). It provides a doctrinal approach to support decision making that helps commanders, their staffs, chaplain sections and unit ministry teams (UMTs) examine a situation, reach logical conclusions, and make informed decisions about how best to provide religious support in a given situation.

This manual contains four chapters. Chapter 1 describes religious support foundations, including the historical precedents for the Army Chaplain Corps as well as its roles, missions, and functions. Chapter 2 delineates the current security environment, including the requirement to provide religious support across the range of military operations. Chapter 3 details the execution of religious support at the different levels of command within our modular Army. Chapter 4 depicts planning for religious support for unified land operations using the operations process.

This publication applies to the Active Army, the Army National Guard (ARNG)/Army National Guard of the United States (ARNGUS), and the United States Army Reserve (USAR) unless otherwise stated. The principles of Army religious support doctrine presented in this manual enable chaplains and chaplain assistants to apply creative, flexible, and innovative approaches to specific missions and operational environments. Chaplains and chaplain assistants serving in a joint force land component command (JFLCC) or a joint task force (JTF) should refer to Joint Publication (JP) 1-05, Religious Affairs in Joint Operations, 13 Nov 09, and other joint planning publications for further guidance. FM 1-05 is nested with JP 1-05.

Terms that have joint or Army definitions are identified in both the glossary and the text. Unless stated otherwise, masculine nouns or pronouns do not refer exclusively to men but to all Soldiers. Headquarters, United States Army Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC), is the proponent for this publication. The preparing agency is the Army Doctrine Proponency Division, U.S. Army Combined Arms Center.

The Army is the principal land force, organized, trained, and equipped to conduct prompt and sustained operations on land. The Army is responsible for deploying forces promptly at any time, in any environment, against any adversary, and must be able to operate for extended periods across the range of military operations.

In order to support the free exercise of religion within the Army, chaplain sections and UMTs must be able to operate within that fluid and uncertain environment. Chaplain sections and UMTs sustain the Soldier across the range of military operations (from stable peace to general war) and during the conduct of decisive action (simultaneous offensive, defensive, and stability or defense support of civil authorities (DSCA) operations). Everything the Army does for our nation is done by Soldiers who are supported by their Family Members. The principles of Army religious support doctrine presented in this field manual enable chaplain sections and UMTs to apply creative, flexible, and innovative approaches to specific missions and operational environments as it supports the Soldier and Family. Chaplains have served in the U.S. Army since the first days of the American Revolution and many have died in combat. These chaplains represented more than 120 separate denominations and faith groups from across America. Six chaplains have been awarded the Medal of Honor for heroism above and beyond the call of duty. Many chaplains and chaplain assistants have received other medals for valor. The personal needs of Soldiers, the mission at hand, their own faith, and emerging religious support doctrine have guided these chaplains and their assistants as they met the goal to uphold the free exercise of religion ensured by the First Amendment of the Constitution of the United States.
