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.
