Stars and Stripes Stars   and   Stripes   is  a  daily  newspaper published  for  the  overseas  military  community. It   supplements   information   provided   by   ship and  station  newspapers  overseas  and  is  pub- lished   in   Pacific   and   European   editions   for military  personnel  and  their  dependents,  and Department of Defense civilian employees.  Stars and  Stripes  publishes  regional  and  area  news events.  It  is  also  used  as  a  forum  for  news releases  by  chaplains  deployed  in  its  publishing area.  RPs  should  submit  information  and  news items  provided  by  chaplains  to  the  PAO  for release to Stars and Stripes. CIVILIAN  NEWSPAPERS Special religious program activities or events which  occur  on  board  a  ship  or  station  and which   are   newsworthy   should   be   released   to local  newspapers.  Standard  Navy  news  releases are often used by civilian newspapers. MAGAZINES Magazines  have  many  advantages  as  infor- mation  media  for  chaplains.  They  often  reach  a larger  audience  than  newspapers  and  have  the advantage  of  longer  life.  Whereas  newspapers are  often  quickly  discarded,  magazines  may  be retained  and  reread.  Another  advantage  of  the magazine  medium  for  chaplains  is  that  the material for magazines is normally written more in depth. A story concerning Navy religious pro- gram activities in a newspaper, radio, or TV spot may  present  only  the  bare  facts,  whereas  a magazine   article   can   give   details,   color,   and additional   background   information.   Articles concerning religious programs and activities may be  submitted  to  the  following  publications: All Hands  magazine Leatherneck  magazine HQMC   Hotline Navy  Chaplains  Bulletin Any   internal   publication   which   can   be used  to  reach  the  chaplains’  target  au- dience Navy  Times Directories  and  Guides Directories  and  guides  provide  an  oppor- tunity  to  publish  a  list  and  description  of  the installation’s   religious   programs.   Color photographs  of  religious  program  facilities  are often  used  in  these  publications.  Such  publica- tions  are  frequently  published  by  civilian  firms in  locations  containing  large  Navy  and  Marine Corps  complexes  such  as  San  Diego  and Norfolk. Religious  Publications Religious   publications   frequently   publish news  about  the  religious  activities  of  military chaplains  and  other  service  members.  Religious publications  are  interested  in  news  items  con- cerning   shipboard   religious   activities   and   the religious  ministries  provided  by  Navy  chaplains to  Navy  Seabee  and  Marine  Corps  units  in  the field.  Religious  Program  Specialists  should  try to  provide  the  Office  of  the  Chief  of  Chaplains with any pictures, news items, and articles per- taining  to  religious  ministry  in  the  sea  services that  are  newsworthy.  The  Office  of  the  Chief  of Chaplains  serves  as  the  Navy  Department  liaison with  American  churches  and  the  church  press, which   have   a   continuing   need   for   items   of interest to the general public. INFORMATION FLIERS Publicity   information   concerning   religious program  activities  and  events,  when  appro- priate,  may  be  placed  in  areas  where  people meet,  such  as  the  commissary,  exchange,  and other personnel support areas. FAMILYGRAMS One   of   the   best   ways   to   boost   morale   of family  members  is  to  keep  them  informed,  and one  of  the  best  ways  to  accomplish  this  task  is the familygram. Familygrams, although not easy 6-18
