The key to an efficient inventory is to be
prepared in advance. This advanced planning
enables the command chaplain and RP, working
with the personnel in the supply department, to
ensure that the office of the chaplain meets the
Navy’s established inventory requirements.
SUMMARY
This chapter contained information on the
Navy’s supply system and specific procedures
and guidelines on how this system is used. Many
important supply terms were introduced which
RPs should know in order to perform their tasks
in support of the Command Religious Program
(CRP). Numerous supply publications were
explained as well as MILSTRIP requisitioning
procedures on a DD Form 1348. Finally, inven-
tory guidelines were covered to show the impor-
tance of this highly important function in the
supply system.
The next chapter will be devoted to explain-
ing where the Navy gets its money and the part
that the CRP plays in obtaining its share of the
command’s budget.
